    I don’t know why, but the borrow checker doesn’t confuse me that much. Use a reference when you want to see the original memory through a window, move when you want the data for yourself, and never have a window to a place that does not exist.

    I think that was the best explanation I've come across so far...you took the time a noobie would need to learn this stuff, and didn't try to "keep under two minutes" destroying the clarity for the sake of speed. Also, you didn't jump immediately to metaphors of "oh, its like if you have a book, and you lend it to someone, but that person can write on the book" and so on...I also find those unnecessary and confusing sometimes

    So I recently just made my first foray into Rust by attempting to build a calculator in a Yew app. I am still struggling with the logic itself, but I actually found the battle with the borrow checker to be one of the more refreshing sorts of problems I ran into. It made me think so much harder about where I was declaring my variables and where I was mutating them that it kinda just felt like my brain was steadily increasing in mass and wrinkle count the whole time.

    Coming from c++ this is intuitive. Unique pointers and move semantics give this type of behavior as options in modern c++ so having them as the default makes sense. Also having the const as default on refs is another good safety measure. I do think a basic understanding of pointers in c and references and smart pointers in c++ will help people understandownership and the ideas it's built upon.

    Thanks for the video. I have a question about the code example in the "Stack & Heap" section:
    - Is there any reason why a() and b() are defined within main() scope rather than, more commonly, outside main()?
    - a() is actually never called by main() and therefore neither is b(). Do the stack frames get constructed anyway as in the picture?

    • @letsgetrusty
      @letsgetrusty  3 года назад +17

      No particular reason for a() and b() being defined inside main(). Stack frames will not be created unless the functions are called so my example code isn't 100% accurate. Good eye!

    You're an amazing teacher thanks man. The way you expained how rust stops two mutable references in the same scope to prevent race conditions. If I am not wrong, this feature isnt there in golang, and this is where rust outshines. This feature will outshine even more, when concurrency comes into play.

    Great video series! I really like your videos. One question though - I know it might seem a bit picky.
    During your stack & heap explanation you say, for method b() the value of var x gets stored in the heap. However it is not a "mut" - wouldn't this apply to mutable variables only or is it based on the type (string in this case)?
    Thanks in advance and keep going.

What a clever way to make sure that we know who is writing data and who is just reading or calling getters. It makes the C/C++ way of using references, pointers and const seem kind of silly.

    I read the Rust book a couple of years ago now but never really made use of Rust because all the borrow checking and lower level things made me realize maybe I'm happier staying with C# or some higher level language. I've been wanting to get back into it, or maybe to learn Go. Rust seems quite popular these days so starting to go that way again.

    • @sebastiangudino9377
      @sebastiangudino9377 Год назад +1

      If you are already familiar with C#. I would actually recommend you learn a LITTLE bit of C++ before. The Syntax is kinda similar (They are oriented around OOP), but C# has a Garbage Collector, while C++ has only manual memory Management. So you'll learn about pointers, malloc and new, destructors, smart_ptrs, references (to lvalues and rvalues), copy constructor and move semantics.
      Those are things, C# does not have. So you can take like a day to learn the Syntax of C++ (How to do in C++ what you can do in C#) and then learn the memory management stuff which is the hard part.
      That way you can understand how hard and unreliable this stuff really is, and how rust, using the same abstractions (But with the added concept of borrowing (A type of move) that can be tracked by the borrow checker) can solve the same issues of C++, and a lot more, by default at compile time. And all the weird anoying part of the languages that you struggled with will probably now make sense as a logical next step, or a consequence of the things that you now know are happening under the hood!

    • @sebastiangudino9377
      @sebastiangudino9377 Год назад

      You could also just keep going. Rust is s logical simplification of C++. But C++ is just a superset of C created to simplify reasoning about objects instead of just bytes in memory, and as such allowing things like RAII which are imposible in C.
      And C is just a logical next step above assembly. Hand compiling C is actually really easy. So you can stick to a subset of C (Just the atomic operations, the one that take a single CPU instructions) and have a very good idea of what's happening under the hood.

What I meant by sticking with high level is because I actually don't want to really think about memory allocation, references etc and just like to work in higher level abstractions :P but ja, Rust started to feel like I needed to know more.

      It will still work as long as you don't use any of them AFTER you declare r3. This is the point where the mutable reference is created and for it to work you must not have any reference (mutable or not) until r3 goes out of scope.

    7:57 - why would you have to use new to allocate memory on the heap in C++? Just use std::string s("hello"), or std::vector and it works just like it did since 30 something years, memory is deallocated at the end of scope.

      True, you don't have to manage the memory yourself with raii data structures. Be aware these data structures are still doing dynamic allocation, but they are doing it in a safe way. You still take a potential performance hit but memory leaks shouldn't be an issue.

      You can use a std::array if you want to avoid the free store and use automatic(commonly referred to as stack) storage. Std::array requires a size known at compile time.
