//
/// References, both shared and mutable.
///
/// A reference represents a borrow of some owned value. You can get one by using the `&` or `&mut`
/// operators on a value, or by using a `ref` or `ref mut` pattern.
///
/// For those familiar with pointers, a reference is just a pointer that is assumed to not be null.
/// In fact, `Option<&T>` has the same memory representation as a nullable pointer, and can be
/// passed across FFI boundaries as such.
///
/// In most cases, references can be used much like the original value. Field access, method
/// calling, and indexing work the same (save for mutability rules, of course). In addition, the
/// comparison operators transparently defer to the referent's implementation, allowing references
/// to be compared the same as owned values.
///
/// References have a lifetime attached to them, which represents the scope for which the borrow is
/// valid. A lifetime is said to "outlive" another one if its representative scope is as long or
/// longer than the other. The `'static` lifetime is the longest lifetime, which represents the
/// total life of the program. For example, string literals have a `'static` lifetime because the
/// text data is embedded into the binary of the program, rather than in an allocation that needs
/// to be dynamically managed.
///
/// `&mut T` references can be freely coerced into `&T` references with the same referent type, and
/// references with longer lifetimes can be freely coerced into references with shorter ones.
///
/// For more information on how to use references, see [the book's section on "References and
/// Borrowing"][book-refs].
