The Complete Rust Programming Reference Guide

Design and implement professional-level programs by leveraging modern data structures and algorithms in RustKey FeaturesImprove your productivity by writing more simple and easy code in RustDiscover the functional and reactive implementations of traditional data structuresDelve into new domains of Rust including WebAssembly networking and command-line toolsBook DescriptionRust is a powerful language with a rare combination of safety speed and zero-cost abstractions. This Learning Path is filled with clear and simple explanations of its features along with real-world examples demonstrating how you can build robust scalable and reliable programs.You’ll get started with an introduction to Rust data structures algorithms and essential language constructs. Next you will understand how to store data using linked lists arrays stacks and queues. You’ll also learn to implement sorting and searching algorithms such as Brute Force algorithms Greedy algorithms Dynamic Programming and Backtracking. As you progress you’ll pick up on using Rust for systems programming network programming and the web. You’ll then move on to discover a variety of techniques right from writing memory-safe code to building idiomatic Rust libraries and even advanced macros. By the end of this Learning Path you’ll be able to implement Rust for enterprise projects writing better tests and documentation designing for performance and creating idiomatic Rust code.This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products:Mastering Rust - Second Edition by Rahul Sharma and Vesa KaihlavirtaHands-On Data Structures and Algorithms with Rust by Claus MatzingerWhat you will learnDesign and implement complex data structures in RustCreate and use well-tested and reusable components with RustUnderstand the basics of multithreaded programming and advanced algorithm designExplore application profiling based on benchmarking and testingStudy and apply best practices and strategies in error handlingCreate efficient web applications with the Actix-web frameworkUse Diesel for type-safe database interactions in your web applicationWho this book is forIf you are already familiar with an imperative language and now want to progress from being a beginner to an intermediate-level Rust programmer this Learning Path is for you. Developers who are already familiar with Rust and want to delve deeper into the essential data structures and algorithms in Rust will also find this Learning Path useful. About the Author Rahul Sharma is passionately curious about teaching programming. He has been writing software for the last two years. He got started with Rust with his work on Servo a browser engine by Mozilla Research as part of his GSoC project. At present he works at AtherEnergy where he is building resilient cloud infrastructure for smart scooters. His interests include systems programming distributed systems compilers and type theory. He is also an occasional contributor to the Rust language and does mentoring of interns on the Servo project by Mozilla.Vesa Kaihlavirta has been programming since he was five beginning with C64 Basic. His main professional goal in life is to increase awareness of programming languages and software quality in all industries that use software. He's an Arch Linux Developer Fellow and has been working in the telecom and financial industry for a decade. Vesa lives in Jyvaskyla central Finland.Claus Matzinger is a software engineer with a very diverse background. After working in a small company maintaining code for embedded devices he joined a large corporation to work on legacy Smalltalk applications. This led to a great interest in programming languages early on and Claus became the CTO for a health games start-up based on Scala technology. Since then Claus' roles have shifted toward customer-facing roles in the IoT database technology start-up Crate
