Relearn Programming With The Rust Book: 5 - Using Structs to Structure Related Data

If you learned a higher, more abstracted language from the start, like Python or JavaScript, then there's a lot going under the hood that you may not be aware of. Knowing these underlying, fundamental concepts of programming will really help you fill the gaps that were created from your non-traditional background and self-taught journey.

Join me as we learn the Rust programming language by working through "The Rust Book" and all the wisdom found within it.

We'll also be working through the "rustling" challenges to make sure we are absorbing the material.

Video key points:

• What is a Struct in Rust, how to instantiate one, and different types of Structs.
• Enough theory, let's use them in a simple app to see their usefulness in readability and maintainability.
• What is a Struct method, and how implementations work in Rust.
• Work through the 3 Struct challenges together in the Rustlings exercises repo.
