Rust

Modern systems programming language

Focuses on safety, speed, and concurrency. Here’s a quick rundown of Rust basics:

Variables:

By default, variables in Rust are immutable.

let x = 5; // immutable

let mut y = 10; // mutable

Control Flow:

Rust provides if statements and loops (loop, while, and for) for control flow.

--

if x == 5 {
    println!("x is five!");
}



for i in 0..5 {
    println!("{}", i); // prints numbers from 0 to 4
}

--

Functions:

Functions are declared with fn and have a set of parameters and an optional return type.

fn add(a: i32, b: i32) -> i32 {
    a + b
}

---

Ownership:

A unique feature of Rust that ensures memory safety without a garbage collector. Ownership rules help manage heap data.
