What is the primary benefit of using namespaces in C++?

  1. Enhanced security

  2. Reduced memory usage

  3. Preventing name conflicts

  4. Speed optimization

The correct answer is: Preventing name conflicts

Namespaces in C++ primarily benefit developers by preventing name conflicts. Name conflicts can occur when multiple classes or libraries have the same name, causing errors in the code. Enforcing unique namespaces allows multiple developers to work on different parts of a project without causing conflicts. The other options, enhanced security, reduced memory usage, and speed optimization, are not benefits of using namespaces in C++. They are concepts that may be important for other aspects of programming, but are not directly related to namespaces.
