Practice It: Rust File Manipulation

Summary

Gain greater proficiency in Rust by completing common programming tasks.

In this course, learn coding best practices and gain greater proficiency in Rust by completing common programming tasks. These tasks include file manipulation, construction of functions, and the usage of collections such as Vec and Hashmaps. In the end, instructor Marcus Willock brings this list of tasks together to complete your final exam: read a file, change the targeted words of that file at will, and then create a new file with your changes. In more explicit terms, take the first chapter of Alice in Wonderland and remove Alice from the story and replace her with yourself. This course is integrated with GitHub Codespaces, an instant cloud developer environment that offers all the functionality of your favorite IDE without the need for any local machine setup. With GitHub Codespaces, you can get hands-on practice from any machine, at any time—all while using a tool that you’ll likely encounter in the workplace. Check out the “Using GitHub Codespaces with this course” video to learn how to get started.
