Structs in Rust, combined with methods and traits, provide a powerful way to create robust and expressive code. Mastering structs is key to writing effective Rust programs.

As you continue your Rust journey, remember to:

  • Practice defining and using structs in various contexts.
  • Explore how structs interact with ownership, borrowing, and lifetimes.
  • Experiment with methods and associated functions to encapsulate functionality.
  • Use derived traits to simplify your code and leverage Rust's standard library.

In the next chapter, we'll dive into enums and pattern matching, expanding your Rust toolkit further.

Happy coding!
