# Rust

I'm still trying - even if somewhat half-heartedly - to learn Rust.
Today I was using my old Acer Aspire 3690 laptop and first installed
the missing patches using syspatch(8) as this machine was just
collecting dust during the last months.

Rust looks really fancy, but ownership and the strange error handling
are giving me a hard time. I did an excercise and wrote the code using
the SciTE editor. The first part somehow works, but I do not really
have an idea why. After getting a bunch of ownership errors I inserted
or removed an '&' here and there.

I think I have to use VSCode for this as the Rust extension shows me
the current types of the variables. Of course VSCode won't run on
OpenBSD and certainly not on this hardware...
