Some Rust exercices
Rust is required for this course! The latest stable version is always recommended.
- Go to rust-lang.org and click on the
Get Startedbutton and follow the instructions to install Rust for your operating system.- Please DO NOT install rust via some other package manager. It will probably be a version that is really old.
You should get somewhat similar output if you run commands like the ones below (newer versions are okay). If you
already have an old version of Rust installed, then run rustup update to install a newer version.
$ rustc --version
rustc 1.54.0 (a178d0322 2021-07-26)
$ cargo --version
cargo 1.54.0 (5ae8d74b3 2021-06-22)Please clone this repository! These exercises are designed as Rust projects for you to edit on your
own computer, with the exception of Exercise A (which is just a README.md file).
The exercises are separate Rust projects inside the exercises/ subdirectory. For each exercise,
you should:
- Open the corresponding
exercise/EXERCISE_NAMEdirectory in your IDE/Editor- Seriously, just open the individual exercise directory in your IDE. If you open the entire repository, your IDE will probably complain that it sees multiple Rust projects.
- Navigate to the same directory with your Terminal application (so you can run
cargo run, etc.) - Open up the
src/main.rsfile. - Follow the numbered exercise instructions in the code comments.
