Rust "The Book" exercices
A collection of the examples/exercices/... found in the rust tutorial "The Book", collected for my own reference.
Interesting commands
Creating
We can create a new package/application with:
$> cargo new <name_of_package>
An application has main.rs as its crate root.
We can also create a new library:
$> cargo new --lib <name_of_package>
A library has lib.rs as its crate root.
These are not mutually exclusive, we can have a library and application in the same package!
Run
Running an application.
$> cargo run
Compile
- Debug
$> cargo build
- Release
$> cargo build --release
- Check
This is usefull in f.e. CI's to quickly check if our project can compile:
$> cargo check
Documentation
Make and open the documentation in your favorite web browser:
$> cargo doc --open
Format
To format the code:
$> cargo fmt
Interesting things to know
-
A char is 4 bytes in Rust!

Breaking with a value is only possible inside a 'loop' not a 'while/for' loop!
