/*
In this task, you should get familiar with malloc() and free().
In addition, you should implement the functions
- fillArray(int size, int base_number)
- printArray(int* numbers, int size).
main:
- user can enter the size of the integer array
- user can enter the base number that is used to fill the array
- print "Memory allocation failed\n" if memory allocation in fillArray failed
- immediately return exit code 1
- free the allocated memory using free() at the end.
call createAndFillArray(int size, int base_number)
- create array by allocating enough memory for it on the heap using malloc()
- if memory allocation is not successful, return NULL
- After allocating fill the array with integer values
with multiples of base_number using pointer arithmetic
- Return pointer to array at the end of the function
call printArray(int* numbers, int size)
- print the array using pointer arithmetic
Examples:
Size: 5
Fill numbers array with multiples of: 3
3 6 9 12 15
Size: 4
Fill numbers array with multiples of: 5
5 10 15 20
Size: 12
Fill numbers array with multiples of: 100
100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 1100 1200
