Q1. What is the smart pointers?
Ans. 
Smart pointers are objects that store a pointer to dynamically allocated memory and provide automatic memory management.
• Smart pointers help prevent memory leaks by automatically releasing memory when the pointer is no longer needed.

• Examples include unique_ptr, shared_ptr, and weak_ptr in C++.

• unique_ptr is used for exclusive ownership, shared_ptr for shared ownership, and weak_ptr to break circular references.

Q2. What is virtual function
Ans. 
A virtual function is a function in a base class that is declared using the keyword 'virtual' and can be overridden by a function with the same signature in a derived class.
• Virtual functions allow for dynamic polymorphism in object-oriented programming.

• They are used to achieve runtime polymorphism by allowing a function to be called based on the type of object it is called on.

• Virtual functions are declared in a base cl...read more

Q3. What is polymorphism
Ans. 
Polymorphism is the ability of a function or method to behave differently based on the object it is acting upon.
• Polymorphism allows objects of different classes to be treated as objects of a common superclass.

• It enables a single interface to be used for different data types or classes.

• Examples include method overloading and method overriding in object-oriented programming.
