Complete Modern C++ - Operator Overloading - Part VI (Smart Pointers in C++11)

The video tutorial introduces smart pointers in C++, focusing on unique and shared pointers. Unique pointers manage memory without sharing resources, using move semantics to transfer ownership. Shared pointers allow resource sharing through reference counting, ensuring memory is released when no longer needed. The tutorial emphasizes using smart pointers over raw pointers to prevent memory leaks.

Describe how shared pointers manage memory differently than unique pointers.

Why is it recommended to use smart pointers instead of raw pointers in modern C++?
