iOS Interview Guide: Escaping and Non-Escaping Closures in Swift

<p>In your interviews, escaping and non-escaping closures demonstrate strong functions and closure skills and problem-solving abilities, enabling you to write efficient and concise code. Be ready to prepare these questions for your iOS interviews as these are the most common questions for interviews.</p> <blockquote> <p>Escape: to manage to get away from a place where you do not want to be;</p> </blockquote> <h1>Q1. What is the difference between escaping and non-escaping closures?</h1> <p>Swift closures can capture and store references to constants and variables from the context within which they are defined. These captured values can lead to a reference cycle. This is where the closure captures a reference to a value that also has a strong reference back to the closure, causing a memory leak.</p> <p>To avoid memory leaks, Swift provides two types of closure:&nbsp;<strong>escaping</strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>non-escaping</strong>&nbsp;closures.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/swiftable/ios-interview-guide-escaping-and-non-escaping-closures-in-swift-4b1b8c810a68"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
