calloc failure

[ns]

I have: (nh-nl + 1) 1247923961 and calloc fails:

v=(double \*)calloc((nh-nl+1),sizeof(double));

v is zero. How do I fix this? Why is this happening?

I think you are trying to allocate over 2GB of space.

You're allocating over 8GB of memory. Windows won't let you do this...

Thanks for the responses. I was really puzzled about that. I wonder what makes calloc fail other than insufficient memory. Thanks, sb
