ERRATA - The borrow checker is explained in my previous video "Rust makes you feel like a genius" (many people missed it) - Void functions actual return an empty tuple `()` which is pronounced "unit". - Reading a variable before it is initialised in C doesn't crash, it's undefined behaviour WHICH IS WORSE OMG - (1..) to my great disappointment isn't infinite, it's bound by the iterators internal i32, which is up to std::i32::MAX (2,147,483,647) - Missing semicolon on line 5! - i32 is difficult to liken to C's long, it's architecture-dependent. - 5:11 though this compiles, it should be `fn is_positive(&self)` to avoid the method taking ownership of the self doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch05-03-method-syntax.html - 2:35 - `assert!` should be `assert_eq!` - 9:31 `flat_map` or `map` both work in this example - 7:13 Error says `OErr` where it should be `Err`

This was incredibly helpful is what has helped me the most so far. I'm 'fluent' in several languages so I have a solid understanding of what to expect from languages. So many videos start from the ground up, and spend 10+ minutes explaining just a single concept or two. Skipping through video after video (or article after article) just to learn the basics is exhausting. That's why I appreciate this video so much. It's not to intended to be fully comprehensive but to provide people (like myself) a bridge between their existing knowledge and how to use Rust. I came away from this video feeling like I could write a nice simple 'hello world' type of application without having to look up 'how to write a function in rust'. Dense videos like these take a lot of time and energy to create, so just wanted to say a huge 'thank you' and share how much it's helped me. The resources that you've linked are just as helpful. Thank you!

My pleasure, and I'm so pleased the videos help you out! My aim is to get as many people into Rust as possible, because it's really revolutionary - not just for C developers tired with bugs (as the common wisdom is) but ALSO for high-level developers (such as me, a python web dev) wanting to write perfect code. Have you seen my previous videos? Rust has a steep initial learning curve. It's going to be a HARD job to get through a few pain points. Here's two you'll hit: 1. Two string types!? 2. Lifetimes And when you hit these rough days, you'll need a boost. My previous 3 videos are designed to remind you that not only is Rust exciting, but it's the only language you can do these amazing things in. Watch them when you need motivation. Good luck! (My recommendation is for 1. is to use String (not str) everywhere, and 2. you can sidestep by copying everything. .copy() .copy() .copy() who cares, optimise later! OR NEVER)

Math and programming are somewhat intertwined. Think of programming as "Math automation". You write the "math formula" as code, declare variables, and the computer "computes" everything else. Programming is a great tool for math majors especially if they had to deal with the same math formula with different variables.

I started on this video and had to go back and watch the previous 3 videos of the Rust Talks playlist. Excelant information throughout and very worth while the time it took to watch them, certainly no second wasted, I like that. I need more of this straight to the point, no BS technical talk that also explains everything you're seeing in code snippets. I've tried other videos before finding these, but they always gloss over small things like the difference between the tail expression of a function lacking a semicolon and explicitly returning a value from it, in which I now know there is no difference. I always get sidetracked by the little things which hampers my learning and causes frustration because I don't understand a bit that wasn't clear to me and therefore can't move on, yet the video is usually miles away from that topic by that point. I've learned more in this 10 mins than I did in a couple of days of watching various videos, reading the Docs (which seem great once you understand half of what you're reading 😂) and experimenting with code. I now know to make great use of struts and matching, and that iterators exist which is something I'm already quite familiar with in other higher level languages. This is my first deep dive into a low level language and you've certainly made it a much more pleasant start than I could have asked for. I look forward to more videos, thank you!

3:04 void is very C-ish. Verbally "void" is... acceptable, but the top function here does not return "void". The type is actually called "unit" and written with the empty parens (). Just writing the notation correctly would be fine imo, but this should've had a short note that the top function is equivalent to -> () and explain that "unit" is just the empty tuple and has one value, and not some special type without any values used to denote no return value

@@Anon.G and those safety restrictions means that you might end up in situations where you think it should work, because it would work in all other languages that you know, but it doesn't in Rust. This is even more confusing when you start composing your own types with structs and enums and they might contain (directly or indirectly) references and you need to be careful to place out all the lifetime annotations correctly. Furthermore, when you start including traits and heap allocations in to the mix then it can become a nightmare compared to other languages. Have you ever implemented a factory pattern in Rust?

I could be wrong, but I don't think that's the case. In Java, you would be right, int is 4 bytes, long is 8 bytes. In C/C++ though, long is 4 bytes, long long is 8 bytes, and int is determined by your architecture. If you're on a 32 bit computer, int is 32 bits aka 4 bytes. On a 64 bit computer, int is 64 bits aka 8 bytes. If you're somehow on a 8 bit computer, int is 8 bits aka 1 byte. The architecture thing is also like isize/usize in Rust

It means the function receives read-only access to the argument. It's called immutable reference. There's also &mut which takes write access. Without any prefix, the argument is taken by value, which means the function consumes it (unless the type is Copy, in which case a bitwise copy is passed in).

I would be very interested to get your take on Vlang and Zig, two languages that seem to be vying for a similar space as Rust. All three are meant to be extremely performant by ditching a Garbage Collector, but similarly avoid the gaping pitfalls of manual memory management. Of course, in most situations, it's not really accurate to say "X language is the best, objectively better than Y language." I personally lack the experience to do a full breakdown of what each language offers to the developer, which projects benefit the most from each language's best features, and so on.
@NoBoilerplate
@NoBoilerplate Рік тому
oh COOL! I'd not read up on Vlang. Looks like a great little low-level language inspired by Go. HOWEVER it has a GC, which means I can already tell many things about the language: - No embedded development - Can't write linux modules - Imperfect for hard realtime applications (music, flight control software, ETL pipelines) - No borrow checker superpowers I wonder who this is for? A Go developer wanting lower-level code? Then why does it also have a GC? Hmm. Cute though! Zig I love - huge huge fan. It really helps you manage memory in a sane way, and the whole language has no surprises. But the kicker is you still must do it, and you might forget. Zig is certainly a better C, but they didn't try to push the envelope. Rust's lifetime annotations and borrow checker are a FEATURE, not a burden. A rich type system is great, but if you add lifetimes to the types, you've enriched them in ways that don't just mean the compiler can manage memory for you - you can build your own types with complex temporal logic in. One day I'll do a video on this XD
@chrs-wltrs

@@chrs-wltrs I admit I didn't get further than the front page, where they mention it! Apparently there's a new mechanism that can statically free 90% of memory cases, leaving the last 10% for GC. While that is terrific, I am left wondering how much time they're going to invest in an imperfect solution XD As for performance, Rust benchmarks in 1.1x C's speed (Java and JS are 4, Ruby is 20 and Python is 80). So while I can believe it, rust is fast enough!

I feel that rust is one of those languages where you need a knowledgeable mentor in the early days. I had a go at writing sha256sum in rust, and there was a lot of head-scratching and digging around to find out how to do things. Whereas in Python and C it was relatively straightforward. I say mentor because, when writing 'worked examples', you're guessing what the novice programmer wants to write. But rather, you need to start with a novice programmer who knows what they want to write, and then guide them as to how to write it in Rust.

You've got it exactly right. Back in 2020 I crashed out of learning Rust twice. First time due to multiple string types (haskell's biggest mistake made again, I thought to myself) and second due to lifetimes. At the time I had a great mentor (Shout-out to Alex!) who picked me up and helped me back on the path. Most people don't have this. They need the excitement of my hype videos to break through. I will eventually run out of hype topics and move on to slightly more detail. But first, there's a few million developers I want to send to rustup.rs!

Yes, this is typical experience when starting to learn Rust, particularly for people coming from OOP. Rust is not the kind of language where you learn to translate syntax from language X, and you're good to go writing your code in whatever style you like. Rust has its own "coding paradigm", that's somewhere in between functional, OOP and imperative. You tried to do some stuff in Rust, and it was difficult to do what you wanted, THE WAY YOU WANTED TO DO IT! That's the problem. It took me about a year to learn the "Rust way of doing things". Unfortunately, I still can't fully explain what that is exactly. Especially not in a single youtube comment.

On one hand, the compiler being this pedantic over almost all the things is fantastic since most "throw away code" is something you actually NEED to throw away and some crude prototyping can happen during compile time instead of runtime. On the other hand, I think you can make some specialized logic based reprap that creates stubs and fake integrations before you move onto creating the "official integration" in some other language that maybe less concerned with some forms of errors that _may_ be caught in Rust before deployment. At least you won't have to deal with the type signatures made famous in that "American Psycho" business card parody of Rust functions from theSTEMgamer XD

If you can create a lambda calculus in Prolog, you can also create dependent types in this language. maybe_fopen(_, _, -1, invalidFile(E)) :- E = 'Could not open file'. maybe_fopen(PATH, FLAGS, FD, RESULT) :- ((string(PATH), string(FLAGS)) -> (integer(FD) -> RESULT = validFile([PATH, FLAGS, FD]); RESULT = invalidFopenReturn('File descriptor must be integer != -1')); RESULT = invalidFopenArgs('Path and Flags must be strings')). When you query for the result of this call like: ?- maybe_fopen("/tmp/foobar", 36, -1, R), print(R). You now get ALL the possible ways this specific function call with these specific arguments can fail, including the -1 file descriptor AND the invalid argument types. I'd say Prolog and similar constraint solvers in the logic programming space are one of the better tools for high level blueprint coding that can also be interactive since prolog can import and run these scripts inside of a REPL. This might be a great starter for automatically generated tests with functions/predicates in this kind of dependently typed domain, since it's cheaper to change the code up front at design time rather than review/production release time. Jarble's transpiler on github and Warren's abstract prolog machine would be great study materials if you're more interested in the topic.

I've got an embedded project on the horizon that would be nice to do in Rust..... but I'm still only "Rust curious" at the moment... I wonder if Antartica speaks Rust?

@@edgeeffect Rust has both first class functions and higher-kinded functions, you'll find just the functionality you want! Nice LT reference! In my mind, though I don't mention it too much in the show, AIs are written in LISP, and speak native Lojban (pronounceable mathematics, look it up!)

Thank you so much! They're not really anything special, the trick is I PRACTICE them a lot. What's a few hours of practice for me, to thousands of hours of everyone's time? Seems rude not to!

The same thing happened to me when I read the article this video is based on, from fasterthanli.me! Continue your journey of discovery here, I've got a short rust intro playlist, not just talking about the syntax: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/p4lhjK2Ehomr0mg.html

I'm so pleased! That's exactly my goal: Rust is such a powerful, new way of programming, but it needs a lot of MOTIVATION to get through the learning curve. Come back to my videos when you get stuck! rustup.rs + The Rust Book
