Sure thing sorry, the problem was that I had the wrong variable in one of the if statement, I copied it over wrong from my hand-written notes I made of the Alg ===...=== void *malloc(size_t size) { size_t *ptr,*next, bestSize, *mm_best_free; (...)

BTW, you can delete these two lines of intialization (i.e. lines 12 & 15 in the above function) as the intialized value gets clobbered on finding the first suitable sized block: 12) mm_best_free=ptr; 15) mm_best_free++; //this must point to (...)
