Learning Rust

Home · Blog

1 January 2023

My New Year’s resolution for 2023 is to teach myself Rust. I’m going to try something new here: for each feature or aspect of the language I learn about, I’m going to write up a post explaining it on this blog. Explaining something to others is a great way to make sure you’ve understood it yourself, and I’m hoping this will also give me a nice reference to look up the details on anything I’ve already learned.

Here’s the full list of articles:

1. Enums
2. Tuples and Structs
3. Algebraic Data Types
4. The Stack and the Heap
5. Panic
6. Error Handling
7. Testing
8. Ownership
9. References
10. Constants
11. Slices
12. The Option Type
13. Iterators
14. Integers
15. Floating Point Numbers
16. Pattern Matching
17. Functions
18. Methods
19. Traits
20. Generics
21. Lifetimes
22. Text I/O
23. Packages and Modules
24. Type Aliases
25. Documentation
26. Binary I/O

And a final one looking back at the experience: Learning Rust (7 May 2023).
