delay VS book

Took a while but this issue was fixed this year. Until then, you could compile a patched version of LLVM, or use an older nightly.

And the code generation was quite broken indeed. Most importantly the saving of registers within interrupt handlers. Hard to understand the bug, but I had documented a simple ask inline solution on the issue. It has been fixed since then.

My last experience was quite good. And I didn't notice wrong codegen.

As an aside, the inline asm combines pretty well with generics to produce custom machine code during compilation. For example I was able to reproduce the gcc-avr built-in for delays: https://github.com/avr-rust/delay/blob/cycacc/src/delay_cycl...

I recently got an Arduino Uno to blink without much hassle, very excited about the 328p having built-in support. Will be even easier when a new release of a couple libraries gets released to crates.io, hopefully soon? (https://github.com/avr-rust/delay/issues/19)

tl;dr I'm trying to figure out why the avr-delay::delay function doesn't seem to do anything when imported as an external crate, but when copy/pasting the code into my main.rs, it all works. Source code here https://github.com/avr-rust/delay

My first port of call was to google learn rust which lead me to "the book". The book is a first steps guide written by the rust community for newbies (or Rustlings as they're called) to gain a 'solid grasp of the language'.

Before Prodzilla, I’d read 'The Book' a couple of times, and had made my way through Rustlings, but hadn’t yet built a serious project in Rust.

To answer your last question;

Start with the Rust book.

https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/

Then do Rustlings until the syntax becomes muscle memory.

Then join the Discord and start doing little projects.

You won’t get up to the proficiency of other languages as quickly in Rust. It takes longer. For me it’s taking a lot longer, but I enjoy it.

Before diving into these repositories, familiarize yourself with Rust and its development ecosystem. The official Rust book is an excellent resource for developers at all levels. Each repository has documentation on how to contribute, covering code style, issue tracking, and pull requests.

This is my third Rust book after the official book and Rust in Action. The other two books are great, but they were too theoretical for me. I'm a slow learner and had much trouble grokking Rust's features and idiosyncrasies. When I was done with these books, I was lost and unsure of what I could do.

It's the same reason everything digital and downloadable isn't free: there's a cost to create it and there's a value to it.

For a language developer to charge for a book about that language, I think that's a completely valid way to make some money off of their work.

Even the Rust book, "The Rust Programming Language" is available freely online [0], but also as a print and ebook for sale via NoStarchPress [1].

You know you can just read it online right now in 2 different variants It does contain some systems programming.

I am looking at The Book (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/), but hoped there was an amazing person on youtube.

Yeah, I'll build something, finally trying webassembly.
