Mastering Swift 2 Programming (Video 20)

This video tutorial explores how strong reference cycles can lead to memory leaks in Swift. It demonstrates creating a memory leak using a strong reference cycle between two objects, a vehicle and a driver, in an Xcode project. The tutorial then guides viewers on how to identify these leaks using Instruments, a tool for profiling applications. By creating and analyzing memory snapshots, the video shows how to isolate the problem and prepare for fixing it in the next tutorial.
