stack-based memory allocation
Stack-based memory allocation is a method of managing memory in a computer program that utilizes a stack data structure to allocate and deallocate memory blocks. Memory is allocated sequentially, with the most recently allocated block placed on top of the stack, and when a block is deallocated, the stack pointer is simply moved to the next block below it.
