Create a struct where 1 of their values could be any type
struct Wrapper<T> {
value: T,
}
impl<T> Wrapper<T> {
pub fn new(value: T) -> Self {
Wrapper { value }
}
}
Wrapper::new(42).value
Wrapper::new("Foo").value, "Foo"
The Option type means that the value might by of type Some (there is something) or None:
pub enum Option<T> {
None,
Some(T),
}
You can use functions such as is_some()
__ or __ is_none()
to check the value of the Option.
Macros are more powerful than functions because they expand to produce more code than the code you’ve written manually. For example, a function signature must declare the number and type of parameters the function has. Macros, on the other hand, can take a variable number of parameters: we can call println!("hello")
with one argument or println!("hello {}", name)
with two arguments. Also, macros are expanded before the compiler interprets the meaning of the code, so a macro can, for example, implement a trait on a given type. A function can’t, because it gets called at runtime and a trait needs to be implemented at compile time.

Create a new method for a type
trait AppendBar {

An Arc can use Clone to create more references over the object to pass them to the threads. When the last reference pointer to a value is out of scope, the variable is dropped.
use std::sync::Arc;
let apple = Arc::new("the same apple");
for _ in 0..10 {
let apple = Arc::clone(&apple);
thread::spawn(move || {
println!("{:?}", apple);
});
}
In this case we will pass the thread a variable it will be able to modify
fn main() {
let status = Arc::new(Mutex::new(JobStatus { jobs_completed: 0 }));
let status_shared = Arc::clone(&status);
thread::spawn(move || {
for _ in 0..10 {
thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(250));
let mut status = status_shared.lock().unwrap();
status.jobs_completed += 1;
}
});
while status.lock().unwrap().jobs_completed < 10 {
println!("waiting... ");
thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(500));
}
}
