Question: 1 / 565

What additional overhead does creating objects on the heap involve?

Time and enums

Space and templates

Time and space

Creating objects on the heap involves additional overhead that is both time and space-related. Option A is incorrect because enums (short for enumeration) do not involve memory allocation and therefore do not have a space-related overhead. Option B is incorrect because templates are used for generic programming but do not add additional space overhead. Option D is incorrect because constructors and destructors are functions that are called during object initialization and cleanup, respectively, and do not add additional space-related overhead. Thus, the combination of time and space best describes the additional overhead involved in creating objects on the heap.
