Memory Management is the most debatable topic when comes to programming in C/C++. You would find a hundreds of articles discussing bugs caused by memory leaks, dangling pointers, double free()
issues and other pitfalls associated with manual memory management. These challenges often lead to unstable applications, security vulnerabilities, and poor performance, making memory management one of the hardest aspects of C/C++ programming.
But what if we automate the process of freeing memory? What if developers could focus more on writing efficient code rather than worrying about when and how to release memory? This is where modern techniques and tools like RAII (Resource Acquisition Is Initialization), smart pointers in C++, and custom memory management libraries come into play.
