Will the following code result in memory leak?

#include<stdio.h>

void main(void)
{
    char *ptr = (char*)malloc(10);

    if(NULL == ptr)
    {
        printf("\n Malloc failed \n");
        return;
    }
    else
    {
        // Do some processing
    }

    return;
}

Answer: Well, Though the above code is not freeing up the memory allocated to ‘ptr’ but still this would not cause a memory leak as after the processing is done the program exits. Since the program terminates so all the memory allocated by the program is automatically freed as part of cleanup. But if the above code was all inside a while loop then this would have caused serious memory leaks.
