### 8.4 The heap

The heap is used to store all dynamic variables, and to store class instances. The interface to the heap is the same as in Turbo Pascal, although the effects are maybe not the same. On top of that, the Free Pascal run-time library has some extra possibilities, not available in Turbo Pascal. These extra possibilities are explained in the next subsections.
