Course Overview
pointers, shared_ptr, unique_ptr and weak_ptr in C++
Pointers are one of the most fundamental and powerful concepts in C and C++ programming. This course starts with C/C++ pointers and in second part of the course it covers Smart pointers concepts.
Smart pointers in C++ are template classes that ensure memory and other resources are managed efficiently. Smart pointers are a key component of C++ resource management and a valuable skill for any developer. In this course, Abhishek Kumar explains different types of Smart Pointers and how to use those. You can choose the right smart pointer for your programming needs.

Good for newbies, i had higher expectations as other courses from the same umbrella are much better. The content and use cases could have been much extensive and rich. Examples with make_shared, make_unique and real world examples. Modules on shared pointer and weak pointer were completed just for sake of completing. DONT GO FOR THIS COURSE IF YOU ARE A PRACTICING PROGRAMMER & WISH TO UPDATE ON C++11 Smart Pointers and Beyong "Introduction to Smart Pointers" is an apt title for the course
