Did you get the tests passing and the code clean? If you want to, these are some additional things you could try:
Then please share your thoughts in a comment on the submission. Did this experiment make the code better? Worse? Did you learn anything from it?
Refer to the exercism help page for Rust installation and learning resources.
Execute the tests with:
$ cargo test
All but the first test have been ignored. After you get the first test to
pass, open the tests source file wich is located in the tests
directory
and remove the #[ignore]
flag from the next test and get the tests to pass
again. Each separate test is a function with #[test]
flag above it.
Continue, until you pass every test.
If you wish to run all tests without editing the tests source file, use:
$ cargo test -- --ignored
To run a specific test, for example some_test
, you can use:
$ cargo test some_test
If the specfic test is ignored use:
$ cargo test some_test -- --ignored
To learn more about Rust tests refer to the online test documentation
Make sure to read the Modules chapter if you haven't already, it will help you with organizing your files.
The exercism/rust repository on GitHub is the home for all of the Rust exercises. If you have feedback about an exercise, or want to help implement new exercises, head over there and create an issue. Members of the rust track team are happy to help!

A huge amount can be learned from reading other people’s code. This is why we wanted to give exercism users the option of making their solutions public.
Here are some questions to help you reflect on this solution and learn the most from it.
Level up your programming skills with 3,450 exercises across 52 languages, and insightful discussion with our volunteer team of welcoming mentors. Exercism is 100% free forever.
