Question: 1 / 510

Why are Implicit StringBuilder objects created in loops considered inefficient?

They consume more memory

They slow down execution speed

Each loop iteration creates a new StringBuilder object

Implicit StringBuilder objects created in loops are considered inefficient for two main reasons- they consume more memory and slow down execution speed. Whenever a new StringBuilder object is created, it uses up additional memory, which can cause memory allocation issues if used in a loop. Additionally, constantly creating new objects also slows down the execution speed of the program as it has to constantly allocate and deallocate memory for each object. This is why it is important to use a single StringBuilder object declared outside of the loop and reuse that object for each iteration, rather than creating new ones. This also avoids the need for manual garbage collection, making the code more efficient. Therefore, the option "Each loop iteration creates a new StringBuilder object" is incorrect and the correct answer is "C".
