What is the ARC in Swift and how does it work?

ARC stands for Automatic Reference Counting. It's a memory management feature in Swift that automatically tracks and manages the app's memory usage.

How does ARC differ from manual memory management?

MagicBuddy
MagicBuddy

Unlike manual memory management, where developers have to allocate and deallocate memory, ARC automatically handles this process, reducing the risk of memory leaks.

Can you give me an example of how ARC works in a Swift class?

MagicBuddy
MagicBuddy

Sure! When you create an instance of a class, ARC increases the reference count. When the instance is no longer needed, ARC decreases the count and deallocates the memory if it reaches zero.

What are strong and weak references in ARC?

MagicBuddy
MagicBuddy

Strong references increase the reference count, while weak references do not. Weak references help prevent retain cycles, which can lead to memory leaks.
