Finally I have a valid reason to learn about memory management. It was also hella weird when encountering it.
minus-squareda_cow (she/her)@feddit.orgOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·10 days agoThat’s the funny thing. I had a (yet) very basic Programm and did not care at all about memory management. When I did some testing I realised, that for some reason when I printed string 1 I also got characters from string 2.
