What is the difference between new/delete and malloc/free?

Answer 1

• To use the malloc(), we need to include or in the program which is not required for new.
• new and delete can be overloaded but malloc can not.
• Using the placement new, we can pass the address where we want to allocate memory but this is not possible in case of malloc.
