Thanks for your work! Algo’s in rust is really difficult, but very interesting

This is some serious Rust and I like it ❤
How did you get this good at Rust? Are you planning on teaching a rust course? I will be signing up fast. Cheers!

Not smart enough to understand all of this but this was a super interesting video!
