c - memory allocation in Stack and Heap -

this may seem basic question, been in head so:

when allocate local variable, goes stack. dynamic allocation cause variable go on heap. now, question is, variable lie on stack or heap or reference in stack , heap.

for example,

suppose declare variable int i. i allocated on stack. so, when print address of i, 1 of location on stack? same question heap well.

i'm not entirely sure you're asking, i'll try best answer.

the following declares variable i on stack:

int i; 

when ask address using &i actual location on stack.

when allocate dynamically using malloc, there two pieces of data being stored. dynamic memory allocated on heap, , pointer allocated on stack. in code:

int* j = malloc(sizeof(int)); 

this allocating space on heap integer. it's allocating space on stack pointer (j). variable j's value set address returned malloc.
