Description
I am currently learning Rust from the beginning and I discovered the book and rustling while searching on the web. Thanks a lot for these resources !
I really like the idea to have more exercises than the ones on the book so, as recommended in the rustlings web site I started the book and rustlings in parallel.
However, I realized that the order used in the rustling is not quite the same as the order from the book. For instance, Vectors come just after primitives in rustling. In the book they are only briefly mentioned during the data types and are really used way later, after ownership, structs, enums and modules.
It would be very neat if one could read a book chapter and then continue rustlings exercises until one hit a wall, and then resume reading the book to come back later to the exercises.
What do you think ?
I am still following my learning, so i might proposed later a different order with maybe modified exercises to adjust what "features" can be used.
