Rust Operators

Rust Operators

Rust operators include arithmetic and logical with type safety.

Introduction to Rust Operators

In Rust, operators are symbols that perform operations on operands. They are an essential part of Rust programming, allowing you to manipulate data and variables efficiently. Rust supports a variety of operators, including:

  • Arithmetic Operators: Perform mathematical calculations.
  • Logical Operators: Used for logical comparison.
  • Comparison Operators: Compare two values.
  • Bitwise Operators: Perform operations on bits.
  • Assignment Operators: Assign values to variables.

Arithmetic Operators

Arithmetic operators in Rust allow you to perform basic mathematical operations, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and modulus. They work on all numeric types.

Logical Operators

Logical operators are used to form logical expressions. They include && (logical AND), || (logical OR), and ! (logical NOT). These operators are typically used in conditional statements to combine multiple conditions.

Comparison Operators

Comparison operators compare two values and return a boolean value. These include == (equal to), != (not equal to), < (less than), > (greater than), <= (less than or equal to), and >= (greater than or equal to).

Conclusion

Rust operators provide powerful tools for data manipulation and logical decision-making with type safety. By mastering these operators, you can write more efficient and effective Rust programs.
