Thanks for installing Rustlings!

|
|
|
Is this your first time? Don't worry, Rustlings was made for beginners! We are
|
|
going to teach you a lot of things about Rust, but before we can get
|
|
started, here's a couple of notes about how Rustlings operates:
|
|
|
|
1. The central concept behind Rustlings is that you solve exercises. These
|
|
exercises usually have some sort of syntax error in them, which will cause
|
|
them to fail compilation or testing. Sometimes there's a logic error instead
|
|
of a syntax error. No matter what error, it's your job to find it and fix it!
|
|
You'll know when you fixed it because then, the exercise will compile and
|
|
Rustlings will be able to move on to the next exercise.
|
|
2. If you run Rustlings in watch mode (which we recommend), it'll automatically
|
|
start with the first exercise. Don't get confused by an error message popping
|
|
up as soon as you run Rustlings! This is part of the exercise that you're
|
|
supposed to solve, so open the exercise file in an editor and start your
|
|
detective work!
|
|
3. If you're stuck on an exercise, there is a helpful hint you can view by typing
|
|
'hint' (in watch mode), or running `rustlings hint myexercise`.
|
|
4. If an exercise doesn't make sense to you, feel free to open an issue on GitHub!
|
|
(https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings/issues/new). We look at every issue,
|
|
and sometimes, other learners do too so you can help each other out!
|
|
|
|
Got all that? Great! To get started, run `rustlings watch` in order to get the first
|
|
exercise. Make sure to have your editor open!
