	   int i;
	   //Allocates memory for pointer variable 5 * 2 (10) bytes
	   ptr = (int *) malloc(2 * sizeof(int));
	   //Reallocates memory again for pointer variable using realloc
	   ptr = realloc(ptr,5 * sizeof(int));
	   for (i=0;i<5;i++){
	       printf("Enter a number : ");
	       scanf("%d",(ptr+i));
	   }
	   for (i=0;i<5;i++){
	       printf("%d\t",*(ptr+i));
	   }
