# rustlings

A cool thing that is currently in development.
|
|
|
|
## How it's structured
|
|
|
|
Ideally, like RubyKoans, all exercises can be run by executing one command, in this case
|
|
`cargo run` (most likely). This runs `src/main.rs`, which in turn runs all of the exercises.
|
|
Each exercise is contained in a Rust file called `about_<exercise topic>.rs`. A minimal exercise looks
|
|
somewhat like this:
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
fn exercise_function() {
|
|
"hello"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
mod tests {
|
|
use super::*;
|
|
|
|
pub fn test() {
|
|
verify!("REPLACE ME", exercise_function(), "Function description");
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
pub fn exec() {
|
|
tests::test();
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each exercise file is supposed to have one `exec` function which gets called by the `main.rs` file.
|
|
This function, in turn, calls all individual test functions.
|
|
|
|
The tests themselves can generally be structured in whatever way is desired, there doesn't have to be a "tests" module, for example. Two macros are provided
|
|
for convenience. The `verify` helper function is essentially a specialized `assert_eq!`, but it doesn't panic
|
|
if the values mismatch, instead it prints out a helpful error message and keeps going. The
|
|
`verify_easy` function is designed as a drop-in replacement for the `verify` function for if the learner needs help solving the exercise. It prints the expected value, too.
|
|
|
|
This is roughly what the console output for a simple exercise looks right now:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Keep in mind that this is a very early draft of how things work. Anything here might be changed
|
|
at any time, and this documentation should be updated accordingly.
