Rust language talk at jecc.ac.in
I introduced the Rust programming language to students of Jyothi Engineering College, Trichur on 30th September 2016, a day after my talk at GEC Trichur
During my talk at GEC Trichur, I was unable to properly cover the features
which make Rust really interesting: ownership, borrowing and lifetimes (it
was a short 2 hour session). This time, I decided to cover basic Rust quickly
without spending time on stuff like sum types and pattern matching and then move
over to the memory unsafety associated with C programming and how Rust takes care
of these issues using the type system. I think I was able to do slightly better
this time (compared to the previous day’s session at GECT). My suggestion is that
even when done as a talk, it will be better to have sessions of minimum duration
3 to 4 hours.
