Thank you! And thank you for the tip I had a feeling it looked just similar enough to be deceiving.
I think there's a few places where this is true in Rust especially. For example, coming from a C-style language (and Python) the
enum
keyword throws a lot of people off. In Rust, while you can use anenum
to represent a set of "constant" values, it's more common to use it to represent a tagged union, making it more liketype
from F#:You might find that some concepts look and feel similar to what you might see in traditional OOP languages, but often end up working more like something out of a functional language.
