What is the word 'new' means in c++

Question

What it is mean in this code ?

queue = new int[100];

Answer 1

'new' sends the memory allocated to the queue to the heap instead of in the stack. Read the comments in the lesson, they help out.

Answer 2

`new` operator is what we use to allocate memory dynamically. `delete` is what we use to deallocate memory.
