Format all Markdown files with dprint (#1157)
This is the result of running `dprint fmt` after removing `src/` from
the list of excluded directories.
This also reformats the Rust code: we might want to tweak this a bit in
the future since some of the changes removes the hand-formatting. Of
course, this formatting can be seen as a mis-feature, so maybe this is
good overall.
Thanks to mdbook-i18n-helpers 0.2, the POT file is nearly unchanged
after this, meaning that all existing translations remain valid! A few
messages were changed because of stray whitespace characters:
msgid ""
"Slices always borrow from another object. In this example, `a` has to remain "
-"'alive' (in scope) for at least as long as our slice. "
+"'alive' (in scope) for at least as long as our slice."
msgstr ""
The formatting is enforced in CI and we will have to see how annoying
this is in practice for the many contributors. If it becomes annoying,
we should look into fixing dprint/check#11 so that `dprint` can annotate
the lines that need fixing directly, then I think we can consider more
strict formatting checks.
I added more customization to `rustfmt.toml`. This is to better emulate
the dense style used in the course:
- `max_width = 85` allows lines to take up the full width available in
our code blocks (when taking margins and the line numbers into account).
- `wrap_comments = true` ensures that we don't show very long comments
in the code examples. I edited some comments to shorten them and avoid
unnecessary line breaks — please trim other unnecessarily long comments
when you see them! Remember we're writing code for slides 😄
- `use_small_heuristics = "Max"` allows for things like struct literals
and if-statements to take up the full line width configured above.
The formatting settings apply to all our Rust code right now — I think
we could improve this with https://github.com/dprint/dprint/issues/711
which lets us add per-directory `dprint` configuration files. However,
the `inherit: true` setting is not yet implemented (as far as I can
tell), so a nested configuration file will have to copy most or all of
the top-level file.

* The exclusive reference constraint is quite strong. Rust uses it to ensure that data races do not occur. Rust also _relies_ on this constraint to optimize code. For example, a value behind a shared reference can be safely cached in a register for the lifetime of that reference.
|
||||
* The borrow checker is designed to accommodate many common patterns, such as taking exclusive references to different fields in a struct at the same time. But, there are some situations where it doesn't quite "get it" and this often results in "fighting with the borrow checker."

- Note that the requirement is that conflicting references not _exist_ at the
|

same point. It does not matter where the reference is dereferenced.
|
||||
- The above code does not compile because `a` is borrowed as mutable (through
|
||||
`c`) and as immutable (through `b`) at the same time.
|
||||
- Move the `println!` statement for `b` before the scope that introduces `c` to
|
||||
make the code compile.
|
||||
- After that change, the compiler realizes that `b` is only ever used before the
|
||||
new mutable borrow of `a` through `c`. This is a feature of the borrow checker
|
||||
called "non-lexical lifetimes".
