-- Newbie Help: Stack and Heap (http://discussion.visorcentral.com/vcforum/showthread.php?threadid=13929)

Question

Help my ignorance?

I'm seeing "stack" and "heap" in various places and I don't know what they are. Right now Clock Pop Hack tells me that my Heap is 223/251 on my VDX.

Stack and heap are two different sections of memory that programs run off of. The stack is used for temporary variables that are only used during certain function calls and the heap is generally used for storage of data and objects etc. So the 223/251 thing might be the amount of free heap memory the hack has.
