I could not even succeed in doing the simplest thing like putting code into a function and executing the function and getting a result back. I can't recall why.
The only other exposure I had to the language was attempting some Leetcode problems. I really like Rust so far. The type system is extremely powerful, the compiler gives robust error messages, and it has so many awesome features like pattern matching and destructuring.
Doubtful. I may have wanted to like Rust more than you when giving it a shot.
I've written a lot of Java and Go but I never enjoyed writing in those languages. I found functional programming languages in college to be very fun, and Rust is giving me that same feeling.
