Rustlings VS Exercism - Scala Exercises

The Rustlings exercises

Did you try the rustlings already?

Did you checkout rustlings I found it really fun to exercise

Start with Rustlings + reading through the Rust book

I’d recommend working through rustlings rather than watching videos for basic rust understanding: https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings. It is essentially a set of quick exercises to get you familiar with the language and how to fix common build errors.

For advanced Rust “Jon Gjengset” has posted a number of long-form videos on YouTube that are very good. Search for it.

For code examples, find a crate in an area that you are interested in and clone the repo. There are so many to choose from that it would be unfair to single anything out. Variation is good, not bad. If you see lots of generics and macros then skip it for early learning purposes.

Instead of writing something from scratch I’d recommend rewriting something you are familiar with in but in Rust. For example, if you did advent of code (if that is your thing) in python then write it in Rust and find a repo of someone who solved the same problems in Rust.

The Rust book is excellent. https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/book/

Hi Reddit, I'm a beginner on Rust and currently practicing on the Rustings project (https://github.com/rust-lang/rustlings)

https://exercism.io (progress can be a little slow if relying on the mentors)

https://exercism.org/ (completely free)

The website has 480 small challenges to identify the given pattern. I'm putting together a Python module that consists of unit tests for each of the problems, similar to what Exercism.io does. The challenge to programmers is to write a function that, given iteration x of the pattern, returns the number of objects at that iteration and a string representation that visualizes the pattern.

https://exercism.io is your solution

I like exercism.io It's slow going but you get reviewed by real programmers

I'm not OP, but I'm a pythonista learning rust. And what's worked so far is a combination of the rust book + exercism.io . Their mentoring tool has really help me when I was stuck

Exercism's Elixir track is great and the mentors there are often helpful. I recommend giving it a go.

Maybe have everyone do the same python challenge from exercism.io and discuss? They're designed to be interesting, small problems that help novice Python coders write more Python-y code.

Codingbat.com for practice on the basics, other sites like hackerrank.com, codewars.com, exercism.io, codingame.com, codecombat.com, and just searching for "Programming problems" will get you a bunch of problems to practice with.
