Q2. What are smart pointers in C++?
Ans. 
Smart pointers in C++ are objects that act like pointers but provide automatic memory management.
• Smart pointers help prevent memory leaks by automatically managing memory allocation and deallocation.

Q3. What is mutual exclusion in the context of concurrent programming?
Ans. 
Mutual exclusion is a concept in concurrent programming where only one thread can access a shared resource at a time.
• Ensures that only one thread can access a critical section of code at a time

• Prevents race conditions and data corruption

• Commonly implemented using locks, semaphores, or mutexes

• Example: Using a mutex to protect a shared variable in a multi-threaded application
