+ INFO: What is Memory Lifecycle in JavaScript ?
3
+ JavaScript, like most high-level languages, handles memory automatically.
4
+
5
+ Memory lifecycle has 3 phases:
6
+ 1. Allocation: memory is reserved when variables or functions are declared.
7
+ 2. Usage: you work with that memory (access/change variables, call functions).
8
+ 3. Release (Garbage Collection): JS automatically frees memory that's no longer used.

+ const name = "Rafay" ; // Allocation
14
+ console . log ( "Hello" , name ) ; // Usage
15

18
+ INFO: What is Garbage Collection ?
19
+ Garbage Collection is the process of automatically freeing memory that's no longer reachalbe/used in the program.
20
+ JavaScript uses a garbage collector to scan memory and clean up values that can't be reached anymore.
