  <p>Please explain the significance of this statement,</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Another
    difference between the malloc() and
    calloc() functions is that the memory
    allocated by malloc( ) function
    contains garbage values, while memory
    allocated by calloc( ) function
    contains all zeros.</p>
