// `Inches`, a tuple struct that can be printed
#[derive(Debug)]
struct Inches(i32);
impl Inches {
fn to_centimeters(&self) -> Centimeters {
let &Inches(inches) = self;
Centimeters(inches as f64 * 2.54)
}
}
I understand that the function signature takes a reference of the Inches struct as a parameter, what does the first line in the function definition mean?
In the let a = b
syntax, a
doesn't just have to be an indentifier for a new variable, it can also be a pattern much like in match
arms:
let a = 0;
let (a, c) = (0, 1);
let &a = &0;
let Inches(a) = Inches(0);
So what you see here is self
being matched as a &Inches
and pulling out the inner value into a new variable called "inches".
This statement is probably more universally readable as:
let inches = self.0;
