This also made me realize that I wasn't using the correct term,
'associated functions', rather than 'static methods'. So I corrected
that in the method syntax chapter.

- `File::open` is for opening a file in read-only mode
- `File::create` is for opening a file in write-only mode, which is what we want instead for this example to make sense
- I found n error in the book, before contributing the patch to fix it, I had to find where they were hosted
- It took me quite look to find where within the rust-lang *organisation* it was! ... and this should make it easier for the next person in the same position

Hi! While researching stuff for the reference and the grammar, I came across a few mentions of using the `priv` keyword that was removed in 0.11.0 (#13547, #8122, rust-lang/rfcs#26, [RFC 0026](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0026-remove-priv.md)).
One occurrence is a mention in the reference, a few are in comments, and a few are marking test functions. I left the test that makes sure you can't name an ident `priv` since it's still a reserved keyword. I did a little grepping around for `priv `, priv in backticks, `Private` etc and I think the remaining instances are fine, but if anyone knows anywhere in particular I should check for any other lingering mentions of `priv`, please let me know and I would be happy to! 🍂🌊
I'm interested in helping out with #16676 but more in the grammar than the reference-- here's my first chunk, more to come!! 🎉
I did pull a bit *out* of the reference, though, that was more relevant to the grammar but wasn't moved over as part of #24729.
I'm looking at, e.g. https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/libsyntax/ast.rs, as the source of truth, please let me know if I should be checking against something else instead/in addition.

Since #24783, the style guidelines recommend that unit tests should live in a submodule `tests` rather than `test` to not clash with the possible use of libtest. This is especially important for benchmark tests as they require libtest. Fixes#24923.
