deleting dynamic allocation c and c++

[bigapewhat]

i thought that "delete []" is used only for arrays so is the following code correctly done?

     int* pi = new int;
     delete [] pi;
     delete pi; 

Does the first delete do nothing and the second one works? Can someone explain if this codes syntax is correct or not.what can i do.

Why do not you want to open a book on C and read the description of free yourself?!

The code is wrong. Remove delete [] pi;.

Conclusion: do not delete more times in a row, because you will be introducing a silent bug, which may cause a crash when the program is run. And also, always pair new with delete and new[] with delete[], for the same reason.
