Compiling won't produce an executable just yet because (as stated in the next
paragraph) there are errors. By removing this sentance, the reader won't get
confused when they expect a successful compile i.e. if they don't read ahead one
paragraph, they are going to be checking their code and wondering why it's not
compiling.
After PR #19766 added implicit coersions `*mut T -> *const T`, the explicit casts can be removed.
(The number of such casts turned out to be relatively small).
These two attributes are used to change the entry point into a Rust program, but
for now they're being put behind feature gates until we have a chance to think
about them a little more. The #[start] attribute specifically may have its
signature changed.
This is a breaking change to due the usage of these attributes generating errors
by default now. If your crate is using these attributes, add this to your crate
root:
#![feature(start)] // if you're using the #[start] attribute
#![feature(main)] // if you're using the #[main] attribute

I realize the linked page still needs an RFC, but the docs should be written in accordance with the guidelines nevertheless.
I searched for times when we were hiding functions with # in the documentation,
and fixed them to not use it unless neccesary.
I also made random improvements whenever I changed something. For example,
I changed Example to Examples, for consistency.
Fixes#13423

Really small correction.
This anti-example in the Closures section is supposed to fail because of a borrow, but it was failing at the type inference because of insufficient type information.
This makes it fail for the expected reason.
