Overview

Explain how smart pointers manage memory safely, with a focus on Box<T>.

Quick Use

• Read references/smart-pointers.md before answering.
• Use BoxTrait::new and unbox() in examples.
• Highlight when boxing is necessary (recursive types, large values).

Response Checklist

• Explain that arrays and dictionaries are smart pointers owning memory segments.
• Use Box<T> to store data in the boxed segment and move only pointers.
• Use boxes to break recursive type size issues.

Example Requests
