% Basics

This section is a linear introduction to the basic syntax and semantics of
Rust. It has individual sections on each part of Rust's syntax, and cumulates
in a small project: a guessing game.

After reading "Basics," you will have a good foundation to learn more about
Rust, and can write very simple programs.
"The Rust Programming Language" This pulls all of our long-form documentation into a single document, nicknamed "the book" and formally titled "The Rust Programming Language." A few things motivated this change: * People knew of The Guide, but not the individual Guides. This merges them together, helping discoverability. * You can get all of Rust's longform documentation in one place, which is nice. * We now have rustbook in-tree, which can generate this kind of documentation. While its style is basic, the general idea is much better: a table of contents on the left-hand side. * Rather than a almost 10,000-line guide.md, there are now smaller files per section. 2014-12-02 08:20:48 -06:00			`% Basics`
