This is the project for the third course in the Udacity C++ Nanodegree Program: Memory Management.
The ChatBot code creates a dialogue where users can ask questions about some aspects of memory management in C++. After the knowledge base of the chatbot has been loaded from a text file, a knowledge graph representation is created in computer memory, where chatbot answers represent the graph nodes and user queries represent the graph edges. After a user query has been sent to the chatbot, the Levenshtein distance is used to identify the most probable answer.
This completed project uses smart pointers, move semantics and thought of ownership and memory allocation.
