This adds strictly more information to the source files and reduces the
need for customized tooling to render the book.
(While this should not change the output of _rustbook_, it is very
useful when rendering the sources with external tools like Pandoc.)
Changes the style guidelines regarding unit tests to recommend using a
sub-module named "tests" instead of "test" for unit tests as "test"
might clash with imports of libtest.
Fixes#24030
Of the four code samples with modules in TRPL:
- 2 use `mod test`
- 2 use `mod tests`
We should be consistent here, but which is right? The stdlib is split:
$ grep -r 'mod tests {' src/lib* | wc -l
63
$ grep -r 'mod test {' src/lib* | wc -l
58
Subjectively, I like the plural, but both the language reference and the
style guide recommend the singular. So we'll go with that here, for now.
The documentation says that 'The current convention is to use the `test` module
to hold your "unit-style"' but then defines the module as "tests" instead.
Replaced outdated use of the `range(start, end)` function where
approriate with `start..end`, and tweaked the examples to compile and run with the latest rust. I also fixed two periphery compile issues in reference.md which were occluding whether there were any new errors created by these changes, so I fixed them.
This commit is an attempt to standardize the use of punctuation and
formatting in "The Rust Programming Language" as discussed in #19823.
- Convert bold text to italicized textcwhen referring to terminology.
- Convert single-quoted text to italicized or double-quoted text,
depending on context.
- Use double quotes only in the case of scare quotes or quotations.
