UniquePtr

The UniquePtr library in Rust is inspired by the unique_ptr smart pointer in C++. Both implementations share the same fundamental purpose: providing unique ownership of dynamically allocated objects and ensuring proper deallocation.

Here are some key similarities and differences between the two:

  1. Unique Ownership: Both UniquePtr in Rust and unique_ptr in C++ enforce exclusive ownership of the managed object. This means that only one smart pointer instance can own and manage the object at any given time.
  2. Automatic Deallocation: When the UniquePtr or unique_ptr instance goes out of scope or is explicitly reset, they automatically deallocate the managed object, freeing the associated memory.

Usage

```rust use unique_ptr::UniquePtr;

fn main() { let mut num = 100; let ptr: *mut i32 = &mut num as *mut i32; let unique = UniquePtr::with_ptr(ptr);

unsafe {
    *unique.ptr = 42;
}

assert_eq!(unsafe { *unique.ptr }, 42);

} ```
