Lesson 6: Borrowing and References in Rust What Are References and Borrowing? In Rust, ownership ensures only one variable owns any given data at a time, but sometimes, you want to allow functions to read or even modify data without taking ownership. That’s where references and borrowing come into play. Immutable References You can create any number of immutable references (read-only […]

Lesson 5: Functions and Ownership Basics in Rust Introduction Functions help break your program into manageable, reusable pieces. Rust’s approach to ownership is what makes it unique, providing memory safety with zero runtime cost. In this lesson, we’ll learn both! Defining and Calling Functions A function in Rust is declared with the fn keyword, a name, parentheses for parameters,

Lesson 4: Control Flow in Rust Introduction Control flow allows your program to make decisions and repeat actions. In Rust, you use familiar constructs like if, else if, else, and looping with loop, while, and for. This makes your code dynamic and powerful. Conditional Statements (if, else if, else) Rust’s if statement works much like other languages but with an emphasis on type safety—conditions must

Lesson 3: Variables and Data Types in Rust Understanding Variables in Rust In Rust, variables are used to store values that your program uses or manipulates. Rust’s approach focuses on safety and clarity. Immutable by Default By default, variables in Rust cannot be changed after they are set (they are immutable). This makes programs safer and
