    S. No. NewDelete New[]Delete[]
    1.Dynamically allocates memory for a variable or object. Dynamically de-allocates memory for a variable or object. Dynamically allocates memory for an array.Dynamically de-allocates memory for an array.
    2.Arguments passed to initialize class constructorNo arguments needed to be passed to call destructorArguments passed to initialize array size (bytes).No arguments needed to be passed to call destructor.
    3.Memory de-allocation must be done using delete operator.Memory allocation must be done using new operator. Memory deallocation must be done using delete[] operator.Memory allocation must be done using new[] operator.
    4.Returns address of allocated object. Returns void() and sets memory to NULL.Returns address of first element of allocated array.Returns void() and sets all memory to NULL.
    5.For example,
    int *xPtr;
    xPtr= new int;
    For example,
