RUST for C programmer
-
Apparently I have to learn RUST. Only vaguely aware of it as a language. Never used it.
I don't have sight of the code I have to modify yet. (I'm hoping it's modify, and not create from scratch...
)Anyone got any handy tutorial-type resources aimed at proficient C programmers for learning it?
(Or I'll take alternatives for refugees from PHP. Or, at an absolute push, possibly C++1.)
Google is not being particularly helpful, by handing out only "this is 'hello world' in RUST" type tutorials."

I have a saying that summarizes my opinion of Rust compared to Go: “Go is the result of C programmers designing a new programming language, and Rust is the result of C++ programmers designing a new programming language”

Otherwise, at least @pie_flavor and @Gąska are evangelizing it, so they might know good resources.
