Viewing assembly for Rust function

I got a funky task: to prove that my benchmark doing the right thing. (turned out I used benchmark…

Iterators in Rust

(noobie warning: I’ve just learned this, so don’t trust anything you read here).

Preface: Iterators in Python

Python iterators is an example of the extremely clumsy implementation of the elegance. It looks fine when you use…

function doesn’t have a size known at compile-time

From TupleStruct to struct with function

I tried to refactor this code:

let picture = (|x:Float, y:Float| sin(x)*x/2.0 + x — y, X as f32, Y as f32);

Drawing in GTK in Rust (part 1)

It’s a double challenge: I’m learning Rust (but I can say I more or less know the language by now), and…

Leetcode excersises as a way to learn Rust

I got hooked on leetcode problems. No, I’m not trying to pass FAANG job interviews, my current job is more than satisfying by all means. Those tasks are really nice, and they are absolutely gorgeous way to learn Rust. They are like small Sudoku puzzles…

Algebraic data types

Last lime I stopped before enum chapter. Today I’m catching up.

As it turn out, from all features I learned so far, enums, or, to be precise, algebraic data types, are the second most exciting feature in Rust after ownership/borrow model baked in compiler. It’s…

ownership & slices part 2

I got some free time, therefore, more Rust!

Strings

I’m reading chapter where ‘move’ is described. This chapter discloses one more important detail: how strings are stored. Rust uses ‘pascal style’ strings. That means they have…

Closures, part 2

I’d like to spend some time studying closures. It’s a tricky topic. Before everything else, I’d like to admire their syntax: It’s way more elegant then python’s keyword-based lambda ugliness. Just compare:
map(|x| x > 0, somelist) and map(lambda x: x > 0, somelist).
