Ep.109

Memory management in Rust, Part 2: Borrowing

Rust's memory management model features the concept of "borrowing", where the ownership of a given variable that needs mutating must be explicitly transferred. Learn how borrowing is embedded in Rust's syntax, and how the compiler prevents you from running code that violates borrowing rules.
