balloc (big alloc)

i recently saw a video of sphaerophoria where they talked about their allocator "sphalloc" and i thought: "well that's a bit overcomplicated", so i made my own.

this allocator is basically an arena allocator, with the added benefit of being able to free your allocations and that it automatically grows in size using mmap.

now also featuring a normal arena, that also grows in size.

quickstart

for usage, look through the tests

clang -o nob nob.c
./nob

this will build the object file & the tests, to run the tests, simply run

./nob test
