How Python automatically manages memory: Python memory management, Part 1

The video explains Python's automatic memory management, focusing on garbage collection and reference counting. It describes how Python tracks object references and removes objects when their reference count drops to zero. Examples illustrate how reference counting works, including the impact of function scope on memory. The video also covers manual reference management using the 'del' keyword. Finally, it previews advanced memory management topics for future exploration.
