dynamic memory allocation is used when we don't know that how more variable mean data we want to enter so to extend the data we use dynamic memory allocation read the concept of link list for more clearness

I am also a beginner and I simply think it can be used when you don't know how much memory size a variable will take. Such as declaring an array which you don't know how many elements it has. Am I correct?
