    I’ve used it the last few years to do Advent of Code (https://adventofcode.com/) and that’s been fun and challenging. Definitely recommend it. Better than trolling through a book of “now do this” examples if you’ve done other languages in the past.

      I know that the “project” approach to learning a language works for some people, but I’ve found l greatly prefer to read a book from beginning to end before undertaking any projects. It helps me start out with a clear picture. I’m finding “Comprehensive Rust” to be fairly good so far. Thanks for all the help, everyone.

      Thanks, I was looking for a more straightforward academic-style textbook for non-beginning programmers, but I’ll make do with what is out there.
