Memory allocation review
In my diagram, I write free store (aka heap). Unfortunately, this equivalence isn't entirely correct: there is
a logical distinction between the two. The free store is to C++, as the heap is to C. Many C++ programmers consider objects
dynamically allocated and released using C (not C++) "conventions" (e.g., malloc) as heap objects, and objects allocated
using C++'s new or new[] and released using delete or delete[] as free store objects.
