Expressions vs Statements
- statements include actions without a return value (ends in ;)
- expressions include actions with a return value (no ;)
statement
{ let y = 1; y += 1; } // no return valexpression
let x = { let y = 1; y += 1 // <-- no semicolon } // returns 2
Function Signatures
Params
fn main(num: u8) { println!("{}", num); }Return Values
// return void fn foo() { println!("hi"); } // single return value fn foo() -> i32 { 123 // <-- return value (no semicolon) } // multiple return values fn foo() -> (i32, String) { (123, String::from("abc")) }
