3D Matrix Manipulation in C

This program implements the allocation, filling, printing, and deallocation of a dynamically allocated three-dimensional matrix in C.

Program Structure

The program follows these steps:

1. Reading Dimensions: The user inputs the X, Y, and Z sizes of the matrix.
2. Dynamic Allocation: The matrix is dynamically allocated in memory.
3. Matrix Filling: The user enters values for each matrix position.
4. Matrix Printing: The matrix is displayed on the screen.
5. Memory Deallocation: The allocated memory is properly freed to prevent leaks.

Implemented Functions

• void fillSizeMatriz(int *x, int *y, int *z): Requests the user to enter the three-dimensional matrix dimensions.
• void mallocMatriz(int ****matriz, int x, int y, int z): Dynamically allocates a three-dimensional integer matrix.
• void fillMatriz(int ***matriz, int x, int y, int z): Fills the matrix with user-provided values.
• void printMatriz(int ***matriz, int x, int y, int z): Displays the three-dimensional matrix on the screen.
• void freeMatriz(int ***matriz, int x, int y, int z): Frees the allocated memory for the matrix.

How to Run

1. Compile the code using a C compiler:

   gcc array.c -o array
   

2. Run the program:

   ./array
   

3. Enter the required values when prompted.

Example Input and Output

Input:

Enter dimension X: 2
Enter dimension Y: 2
Enter dimension Z: 2
x: 0, y: 0, z: 0    1
x: 0, y: 0, z: 1    2
x: 0, y: 1, z: 0    3
x: 0, y: 1, z: 1    4
x: 1, y: 0, z: 0    5
x: 1, y: 0, z: 1    6
x: 1, y: 1, z: 0    7
x: 1, y: 1, z: 1    8

Output:

1 	2 
3 	4 

5 	6 
7 	8 

Considerations

• The program ensures that all dynamically allocated memory is freed at the end.
• The functions follow a modular approach, making the code easier to understand and maintain.
• The use of malloc and free allows flexible memory allocation, adapting to the user’s needs.
