About

MEMV is a real-time memory visualization tool designed to help you understand C++ memory management concepts. As you write code, it displays the stack and heap in real-time, making it perfect for learning:

• Pointers and references - See how they work in memory
• Stack vs Heap - Visualize the difference between stack and heap allocation
• Memory leaks - Identify and understand memory leaks
• Dangling pointers - See what happens when pointers become invalid
• Heap management - Learn about allocation, deallocation, and memory management

Note: MEMV currently supports only a small subset of the language, but it's powerful enough to learn many fundamental memory related concepts
