Clippy VS adventofcode

cargo, rustfmt, clippy, rust-analyzer, and Rust’s robust unit testing capabilities together form a powerful ecosystem for managing large-scale projects like Spin.

Firstly, I added a section to run the code formatter rustfmt and the linter clippy:

I couldn't find it in the API guidelines either. From what I understand, the idea is that any trait bounds, which includes generic type parameter bounds and lifetime bound on a type (struct or enum) would be repeated back in the impl block

there is a nice discussion on this issue here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/1689

You should not blindly follow clippy lints. They are sometimes wrong. Another example https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/9782 .

I often write () = f() to assert that f() is unit. Unfortunately clippy warns on such code ( https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/9048 ). There are very recent pull requests for this bug, so hopefully this bug will be fixed very soon. But meanwhile I invented this workaround: [()] = [f()] :)

Apart from running clippy on many projects being essential, clippy is also an exceptionally welcoming project, no matter your prior knowledge.

clippy is a great place to get started :) though it isn't exactly new.

clippy is also pretty compiler-adjacent and unlike rust-analyzer uses rustc's internal APIs. Don't let the size of the code base scare you off! It's actually feasible for a newcomer to contribute even such a substantial change as a new lint, and we have issues labeled as "good first issue" that come with mentorship, so you don't need to go it alone.

Yes, you could use it to write a lint. Although you might find it easier to just fork Clippy and add your own lints to their existing framework.

My Scala solution – to be cleaned up.

Welcome back to my series of Advent of Code solutions in MiniScript! Day 18 was pretty straightforward, though it presents some interesting choices in how to represent the data -- choices I'm not sure I made optimally.

My Scala solution.

And I've solved all of the Advent of Code problems so far this year, which is utterly unimportant but still brings me joy.

If you'd enjoy some coding challenges, advent of code (https://adventofcode.com/) is currently going on.

Welcome back to my series of Advent of Code solutions in MiniScript! In Day 17 we got to (sort of) play Tetris. Five different Tetris-like shapes fall into a pit, moved left or right on each step according to the input. The first task is to see how high this stack will grow after 2022 blocks have been dropped in.

Welcome back to my series of Advent of Code solutions in MiniScript! Day 16 was... how to put this?
