Comprehensive Rust v2 (#1073)
I've taken some work by @fw-immunant and others on the new organization
of the course and condensed it into a form amenable to a text editor and
some computational analysis. You can see the inputs in `course.py` but
the interesting bits are the output: `outline.md` and `slides.md`.

The idea is to break the course into more, smaller segments with
exercises at the ends and breaks in between. So `outline.md` lists the
segments, their duration, and sums those durations up per-day. It shows
we're about an hour too long right now! There are more details of the
segments in `slides.md`, or you can see mostly the same stuff in
`course.py`.

This now contains all of the content from the v1 course, ensuring both
that we've covered everything and that we'll have somewhere to redirect
every page.

Fixes #1082.
Fixes #1465.

Filesystem Hierarchy

Omitting the module content will tell Rust to look for it in another file:

mod garden;

This tells rust that the garden module content is found at src/garden.rs. Similarly, a garden::vegetables module can be found at src/garden/vegetables.rs.

The crate root is in:

  • src/lib.rs (for a library crate)
  • src/main.rs (for a binary crate)

Modules defined in files can be documented, too, using "inner doc comments". These document the item that contains them -- in this case, a module.

//! This module implements the garden, including a highly performant germination
//! implementation.

// Re-export types from this module.
pub use seeds::SeedPacket;
pub use garden::Garden;

/// Sow the given seed packets.
pub fn sow(seeds: Vec<SeedPacket>) { todo!() }

/// Harvest the produce in the garden that is ready.
pub fn harvest(garden: &mut Garden) { todo!() }
  • Before Rust 2018, modules needed to be located at module/mod.rs instead of module.rs, and this is still a working alternative for editions after 2018.

  • The main reason to introduce filename.rs as alternative to filename/mod.rs was because many files named mod.rs can be hard to distinguish in IDEs.

  • Deeper nesting can use folders, even if the main module is a file:

    src/
    ├── main.rs
    ├── top_module.rs
    └── top_module/
        └── sub_module.rs
    
  • The place rust will look for modules can be changed with a compiler directive:

    #[path = "some/path.rs"]
    mod some_module;
    

    This is useful, for example, if you would like to place tests for a module in a file named some_module_test.rs, similar to the convention in Go.
