<h2>Code Highlights: main.cpp</h2>
75+
<p>The accompanying <a href='https://.com/LuCamachoJr/cpp-objects-and-pointers/blob/master/main.cpp' target='_blank'>main.cpp</a> file demonstrates key programming principles, including:</p>
76+
<ul>
77+
<li><strong>Object-Oriented Programming (OOP):</strong> Showcasing the use of classes, objects, and encapsulation to ensure secure and modular code.</li>
78+
<li><strong>Dynamic Memory Management:</strong> Highlighting pointers and memory allocation techniques to avoid memory s and vulnerabilities like buffer overflows.</li>
79+
<li><strong>Secure Coding Practices:</strong> Implementing structured logic and error handling to build reliable and robust applications.</li>
80+
</ul>
81+
<p>By applying these principles, the code ensures both performance and security, making it a valuable example for aspiring software developers and cybersecurity professionals.</p>
