C++: Vector vs Array

What are the main differences between vectors and arrays in C++?

Vectors are dynamic and can resize, while arrays are static and have a fixed size. Would you like to know more?

Can you explain how memory management differs between them?

Sure! Vectors handle memory automatically, while arrays require manual management. This can lead to potential memory leaks with arrays.

Which one is better for performance?

It depends on the use case. Arrays can be faster for fixed-size data, while vectors offer flexibility and ease of use.

Are there any specific scenarios where I should prefer one over the other?

Yes, use arrays for performance-critical applications with known sizes, and vectors for dynamic data where size may change.
