Why learn Rust?
Firstly, Rust is hot. Clients are screaming for Rust developers, so if you learn this language there is little doubt you will have increased career options.
Rust is a simple, efficient and time-saving application that has been designed from the ground-up to prevent faults and keep data secure. This reduces the amount of code you need to write, freeing up time to work on other projects.
But lets not forget one incredibly important feature. Rust is fun to program in. In fact it's regularly voted as one of the most fun languages to develop in.

In this Rust Programming Language for Beginners course, you’ll see real-life examples that can be applied to personal or corporate programs.
One of the many benefits that Rust has is an ownership system, eliminating bugs that crash your apps and programs. It works just fine in Windows, Mac and Linux.
You can also develop your own libraries and publish them on the Rust repository. Sharing these with other programmers quickly broadens your experience and puts you at the head of the pack.
By the end of this course you'll have a solid understanding of the Rust language, and will be able to code in an organised yet fast way through rust modules.
Finally, discover trait-based generics and then you will develop your own grep tool in Rust.
Course topics include:
If - Else in Rust
Loops in Rust
Functions in Rust
Tuple and Array in Rust
Ownership in Rust
Guessing Game Using Cargo
