What is Memory Model?

The C++ memory model defines how a program organizes and manages memory during execution. It divides memory into different segments, each serving a specific purpose: the stack for function calls and local variables, the heap for dynamic memory allocation, the data segment for global and static variables, and the code segment for executable instructions. Understanding this model is crucial for writing efficient and bug-free C++ code, especially when dealing with memory management and resource allocation.
