Introduction
In this lab, the use of let
-else
in Rust is demonstrated, where a refutable pattern can match and bind variables in the surrounding scope, or else diverge when the pattern doesn't match by using statements like break
, return
, or panic!
. This construct allows for concise and readable code when dealing with pattern matching and error handling scenarios, eliminating the need for repeating code blocks or using outer let
statements.
Note: If the lab does not specify a file name, you can use any file name you want. For example, you can use
main.rs
, compile and run it withrustc main.rs && ./main
.
