}The above program is utterly wrong, and it is a wonder that it doesn't
}crash your system.
}
}(a)  You must #include <stdlib.h> or else properly declare malloc() and
}realloc() before invoking them.
}
}(b)  You must #include <stdio.h> or else properly declare printf() before
}invoking it.
}
}(c)  You must #include <string.h> or else properly declare strcpy() before
}invoking it.

i assumed people would do this.

}(d)  You must return an integer value from the main() function, or else
}terminate the program by invoking exit().
}
}(e)  realloc() takes two arguments.

this was a typo on my part. the program will still not work when you change
the realloc to 'foo = realloc (foo, 10 + 1);'
