Smart Pointers in C++ for Beginners

Explore smart pointers in C++ through this comprehensive 25-minute tutorial video. Learn about the three types of smart pointers: unique_ptr, shared_ptr, and weak_ptr. Discover how these container wrappers for raw pointers automatically manage memory deallocation when going out of scope. Dive into unique pointers, understanding sharing vs. moving, and automatic memory deallocation. Examine shared pointers and their memory management capabilities. Compare weak pointers to shared pointers, gaining insights into their differences and use cases. Enhance your C++ programming skills with this beginner-friendly guide to smart pointers, complete with practical examples and clear explanations.
