Updates all references from first to second edition of Rust book #368

nfiles · 2017-10-21T17:27:45Z

References #356 (not sure if it closes it or not)

The only remaining references to the first edition are in these problems:

decimal
- derive traits: topic isn't written yet (Appendix C)
parallel letter frequency
- benchmark tests: I can't find any reference to this topic in the second edition
- nightly rust: topic isn't written yet (Appendix D)

For reference, this is the search string I used to find the references: doc.rust-lang.org

And this is the script I used to update the most common first-edition references:

#! /bin/sh

# reference in the content
sed \
    -r 's|\[Crates and Modules\]\(https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/book/crates-and-modules.html\)|\[Modules\]\(https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/second-edition/ch07-00-modules.html\)|' \
    -i exercises/*/README.md

this is not on you, but I think this was unused. If it were used, I think I would have seen a link that looks like[Crates and modules][crates-and-modules]. We might want to look into that, and maybe a future PR can simply remove the [modules]: and [cargo]: if they are similarly not used. But I would keep what's been done in this PR, since it is just doing what it says it's doing (replace 1st ed with 2nd ed)

Oh, I forgot how named links in markdown work. That makes sense.

petertseng · 2017-10-25T13:19:52Z

I would like to say that this PR does close the linked issue since we have taken all the actions that we can at the current time. I wish there were a way to keep some record of things that we might want to check/take action on in the future. Perhaps an issue is still the right thing to do, just with a certain label.

differs from config/exercise-readme-insert.md. In particular, the name is crates here but cargo in config/exercise-readme-insert.md. I'm going to regenerate all READMEs to make them the same.

petertseng · 2017-10-25T13:42:54Z

So, I hope you don't mind: To make this easier to review, I need to split this up into two commits.

One is just editing exercise-readme-insert.md and then regenerating all READMEs using it. That's all automatic and the only file that needs to be reviewed in that particular commit is exercise-readme-insert.md. Then the other commit is all the other files, and all files in that commit should get reviewed.

If this is not done I was having too hard of a time knowing which files I actually need to review.

petertseng · 2017-10-25T13:51:39Z

Same as in #365 (comment) . Commit message is being changed from "Updates" to "Update".

petertseng

Nice job. Don't worry about the comments that start with "not on you". Just two relevant things to deal with, I think.

docs/ABOUT.md


 Rust core and the standard library contain a minimal set of functionality. Rustaceans are encouraged to add features, in the form of libraries called _crates_, to the language and then share them on [crates.io](https://crates.io/).

 As a systems-level language, Rust is frequently used for building any tool where speed, performance and stability are paramount. The [Awesome Rust](https://github.com/kud1ing/awesome-rust) list collects examples of Rust projects, which include CLI tools, ORMs, operating systems and games. Regardless of what you build in Rust, it will be fast and memory safe!

-The home page for Rust is [rust-lang.org](https://www.rust-lang.org/). Rust has excellent documentation at [rust-lang.org/documentation.html](https://www.rust-lang.org/documentation.html). Newcomers should start with "The Book" located at [doc.rust-lang.org/book/](https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/).

about doc.rust-lang.org/book/:

Previously, the link target was indicated by the link text, so if I were to copy the link text and paste it, I would reach the intended target. This is no longer true.

Is it important to keep true?

I don't care so if nobody else cares we will keep it as it currently is in this PR.

I did not consider that. I think it would make more sense for the two links to match, but it's not a big deal.

So, it looks to me like the link to https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/lifetimes.html#impl-blocks (which would now be reachable at https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/first-edition/lifetimes.html#impl-blocks) is meant to help with Brackets::from("[]"). In light of that, might I suggest that https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/second-edition/ch10-03-lifetime-syntax.html#lifetime-annotations-in-method-definitions looks more relevant?

not on you so no need to change this PR for this: I don't think either the first edition or the second edition link argues that you should not implement traits on primitives.

Splitting the huge commit into two separate ones is a good call.

I didn't notice that the README.md files were generated! That's awesome.

I didn't notice that the README.md files were generated!

In case anyone is reading this message and wants to generate the READMEs as well, until #354 receives approval so that it can be merged, the Rust track's READMEs are currently generated using a state that actually does not correspond to any exercism/problem-specifications commit; instead, a state that correctly reproduces the current Rust READMEs on master is https://github.com/petertseng/exercism-problem-specifications/tree/rust-readmes.

petertseng · 2017-10-26T21:52:20Z

I just merged a new exercise, so, this PR should get rebased on master so that the README of the new exercise gets the generated change as well.

I can do that in a few hours. I sure don't want to add more work on your plate through no fault of yours.

petertseng

OK, that's all done. I'm out of the allotted time so I can't double check it, necessary before merging. Later.

No problem! Thanks for reviewing everything and directing me through this. It was a ton of work and is very appreciated. :)
