1 //! A UTF-8βencoded, growable string.
3 //! This module contains the [`String`] type, the [`ToString`] trait for
4 //! converting to strings, and several error types that may result from
5 //! working with [`String`]s.
9 //! There are multiple ways to create a new [`String`] from a string literal:
12 //! let s = "Hello".to_string();
14 //! let s = String::from("world");
15 //! let s: String = "also this".into();
18 //! You can create a new [`String`] from an existing one by concatenating with
22 //! let s = "Hello".to_string();
24 //! let message = s + " world!";
27 //! If you have a vector of valid UTF-8 bytes, you can make a [`String`] out of
28 //! it. You can do the reverse too.
31 //! let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];
33 //! // We know these bytes are valid, so we'll use `unwrap()`.
34 //! let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).unwrap();
36 //! assert_eq!("π", sparkle_heart);
38 //! let bytes = sparkle_heart.into_bytes();
40 //! assert_eq!(bytes, [240, 159, 146, 150]);

166 /// Since we're only providing one index, `&u8` makes the most sense but that
