Where are objects stored in memory?

Answer from AI

Objects in memory are usually stored in the heap — a region of dynamic memory where memory is allocated for objects during program execution. Unlike the stack, which stores local variables and function calls, the heap is intended for objects with an indefinite lifespan. Memory management in the heap is often handled by a garbage collector, which frees memory from objects that are no longer referenced. For example, in languages with automatic memory management (Java, C#), objects are created in the heap, and the garbage collector takes care of their removal.
