 Calling make with a map type and size hint `n` will create a map with initial space to hold `n` map elements. The precise behavior is implementation-dependent.

+### Allocation
+
+The built-in function `new` takes a type `T`, allocates storage for a [variable](#variables) of that type at run time, and returns a value of type `*T` [pointing](#pointer-types) to it. The variable is initialized as described in the section on [initial values]().

+```go
+new(T)
+```

+For instance
+
+```go
+new(int)
+```

+allocates storage for a variable of type `int`, initializes it `0`, and returns a value of type `*int` containing the address of the location.

 ### Min and max
 
 The built-in functions `min` and `max` compute the smallest—or largest, respectively—value of a fixed number of arguments of [ordered types](). There must be at least one argument.
