Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A smart pointer is a type of pointer that automatically manages memory by keeping track of dynamically-allocated memory and automatically deleting it when it is no longer in use. This helps to prevent memory leaks and other errors that can occur when memory is not properly managed. A deleting pointer is not a commonly used term, and a null pointer is simply a pointer that does not point to anything. The terms "memory conservation pointer" and "None of the above" do not accurately describe a smart pointer.
