Rust Structs Explained - Custom Data Types, Methods & Derive Traits | Rust Tutorial

Learn how to create custom data types in Rust using structs! This beginner-friendly tutorial covers: 📚 What You'll Learn: • Creating structs to group related data • Defining fields with types (String, u32, i32) • Adding methods with impl blocks • Using &self to access struct data • Associated functions (constructors) • Derive traits: Debug, Clone, PartialEq 💻 Code Examples: 1. Basic Struct: struct Person { name: String, age: u32, } 2. Struct with Methods: impl Rectangle { fn area(&self) → u32 { self.width * self.height } } 3. Derive Traits: #[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq)] struct Point { x: i32, y: i32 } 🔧 Commands Used: • rustc filename.rs - Compile Rust code • ./filename - Run the compiled program • nvim filename.rs - Edit code 📖 Key Concepts: • struct - Groups related data together • impl - Adds methods to a struct • &self - Reference to the struct instance • #[derive] - Automatically implements traits Created by Celeste ✨ #Rust #RustLang #Programming #Coding #Tutorial #Structs #Beginner
