    That is not what UB means. Undefined Behaviour is behaviour that the compiler is allowed to assume will never happen, and which can consequently cause miscompilations due to optimisation passes gone wrong if it does in fact occur in the source code.

    It's true that Rust does not have a written specification that clearly delineates what is and isn't UB in a single place. But:

    1. UB is impossible in safe code (modulo bugs in unsafe code)

    2. There are resources such as the Rustinomicon (https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/) that provide a detailed guide on what is and isn't allowed in unsafe code.

    In practice, it's much easier to avoid UB in Rust than it is in C++.

  • Performance critical ML: How viable is Rust as an alternative to C++
    4 projects | /r/rust | 2 May 2023
    The ownership model & borrow checker makes rust a bit of an awkward language in which to write complex data structures like trees and graphs. It can be done - since you can always use raw pointers & unsafe code when you absolutely need to to treat rust like C. But the language fights you, and the community can get a bit moralistic about this sort of thing. The rust nomicon is a fantastic resource for learning the limits of the borrow checker, and where and how to use unsafe code correctly. You will need unsafe less than you think you will, but sometimes you will have no choice.

What are some alternatives?
