Benefits

• Improved memory management
• Compiled (Like C/C++, faster performance)
  • This makes it faster than most languages
• No pointers or nulls (unlike C, Java)
• Strict Typing.
  • Makes code harder to compile but less bugs at runtime
  • Refactoring/Modifying existing code is a lot less risky.
  • Once your code compiles, you can be very confident that it won't have bugs.
• Compiler is more helpful compared to most languages. Will show the error and suggest resolutions.
• No garbage collection
• Strict Typing
  • Have to typedef every variable.

Exception Handling

• Rust has no exceptions.
• Instead, returns an object Result<T,E> with either a recoverable or nonrecoverable error.
• If it's nonrecoverable, you have to deal with it at compile time up front, before it affects the app.

Ownership

• Biggest new concept in Rust
• When you use a variable and assign it to another, it's "used" and the memory is released.
  • y = a + b, a and b are released
• Guarantees low memory usage.
