Introduction

Welcome to The Rust Programming Language , an introductory book about Rust. The Rust programming language helps you write faster, more reliable software. High-level ergonomics and low-level control are often at odds in programming language design; Rust challenges that conflict. Through balancing powerful technical capacity and a great developer experience, Rust gives you the option to control low-level details (such as memory usage) without all the hassle traditionally associated with such control.

An Example Program Using Structs

fn main() {
    let width1 = 30;
    let height1 = 50;

    println!(
        "The area of the rectangle is {} square pixels.",
        area(width1, height1)
    );
}

fn area(width: u32, height: u32) -> u32 {
    width * height
}

Example

fn area(width: u32, height: u32) -> u32 {
    width * height
}

The issue with this code is evident in the signature of area:

fn area(width: u32, height: u32) -> u32 {

The area function is supposed to calculate the area of one rectangle, but the function we wrote has two parameters. The parameters are related, but that’s not expressed anywhere in our program. It would be more readable and more manageable to group width and height together.

This document provides an early developer preview of how Aleo enables engineering teams to build web applications that are performant, secure, and anonymous. Aleo introduces an application runtime environment that allows your software to compile, execute, and finalize its state autonomously.

Leo will try to detect arithmetic operation errors as soon as possible. If an integer overflow or division by zero can be identified at compile time Leo will quickly tell the programmer. Otherwise, the error will be caught at proving time when main function inputs are fetched.
