Rust in Action

Rust is a new systems programming language that gives you the low-level power of C with the elegance and ease of languages like Ruby and Python. Rust is thread safe, enabling "fearless concurrency".

Rust in Action introduces the Rust programming language by exploring numerous systems programming concepts and techniques. You'll be learning Rust by delving into how computers work under the hood.

You'll find yourself playing with persistent storage, memory, networking and even tinkering with CPU instructions. The book takes you through using Rust to extend other applications and teaches you tricks to write blindingly fast code. You'll also discover parallel and concurrent programming.

·    Concurrent and parallel programming

• Sharing resources with locks or atomic operations
• Avoiding programming with global state
• Message passing inside your applications
• Memory management and garbage collection

Readers need intermediate programming skills and familiarity with general computer science concepts, the command line, and networking.
