Explain ownership in Rust.
The ownership system in Rust eliminates common memory-related issues such as null pointer dereferences, dangling pointers, and data races. It achieves memory safety without the need for a garbage collector, making Rust suitable for systems programming where fine-grained control over resources is crucial.
By enforcing ownership rules at compile time, the Rust compiler guarantees memory safety and prevents many runtime errors. It ensures that resources are deallocated appropriately, avoiding memory leaks, use-after-free errors, and other memory-related bugs.
