Answer 1

No. It just tells the processor that now that memory is freed so it can reused by other processes...

Jayakrishna🇮🇳 but why is the value still available after clearing the memory?? Because clearing the memory must clear the value too rgt?

Answer 4

It will remain until in overridden by other processes and compiler specific. If don't delete then other processes can't use that memory...
