Intro to Rust Programming Language (Installing guide, cargo and simple examples, vs C++)

In this video we look at how to install the Rust tool chain, RustUp-Init, compiler, and Rust's package manager Cargo. We also look at some small programs, and one interesting quirk (i.e. variables are immutable by default).

Are you making a rust video series? Looking forward to that!

Ive written a few things in this language and I think it has potential. The big issue I have with it is variable ownership can get quite frustrating and you have to really know the mechanics of it. Idk why, but whenever I try to pick up a new language, despite it usually being easier, I always just default back to c and c++ within a few months. I need to break that habbit and maybe if I focus on rust and force myself to really study it, I will like it

I'd really like to see more videos on Rust, such an interesting language! Unfortunately I'm stuck with FORTRAN at work, which is quite horrible (it has great built-in array support though, multidimensional, custom bounds, passing sub-arrays to functions etc.).

The Rust community should name their compiler "oxidizer"

[GNARGNARHEAD]

you're a natural; wish I bumped into this yesterday, lol

[Humble_Electronic_Musician]

Nice!
This is a very nice introduction to Rust for me!

[belgiangeek]

Thank you. Very interesting video. I am eager to see more Rust videos. By the way are the integer variables 32 or 64 bits or is it like C machine dependent?

[ХамиСнек]

what a coincidence! just started picking this up

[emilemil]

Umm, actually! It's way faster to open up the command prompt through just the windows key, typing "cmd" and hitting enter.

[kpjVideo]

Awesome, thank you :) What separates a macro from a normal function?

[markenriquez]

Hmmm... "Variable" by definition in the English language means that it can change but then in rust, variables by default are immutable or "cannot be changed".
Now, why is that an immutable variable is even called a "variable" at this point?
Or, was it still called a variable since it can be changed in compile time?
Or, maybe it's possible that it is a set once variable meaning that it can also take values from functions or expressions and not just as a compile time constant.
I dunno, but the last possible reason is cool.

Whats different in Rust rather then others language. What is the basic use of RUST in computer science

[NeilRoy]

You need to create your own language, name it Creal (like C + real maybe?) or "Creel" ;)
For the command prompt, Windows+X followed by "C" works as well.
You can't very well call it a "variable" if you cannot vary what the value is. A more accurate phrase to use would be to call them constants, not variables.

This guy is so unorganized

[Victor_Marius]

Visual Studio Code has a lot of extensions for rust

[schifoso]

If you're a lazy typer, you can use "md" instead of "mkdir".

C has had beginthread() for a long time, and in Windows programming it's preferable if you're using stdlib functions.

[alanhere]

oh; rust; needs; these; as; well; then;

I bet the compiler knows where they all go and prompts you if you missed any along with exactly where it should have put them.

[peterpetrov]

the curly bracket was on the second line 7:03 - disliked the video = cant fat to that

[TheWeepingCorpse]

Isn't the term "immutable variable" an oxymoron?
