This is Rust-101, a small tutorial for the Rust language. It is intended to be an interactive, hands-on course: I believe the only way to really learn a language is to write code in it, so you should be coding during the course.
If you have any questions that are not answered here, check out the “Additional Resources” below. In particular, the IRC channel is filled with awesome people willing to help you! I spent lots of time there ;-)
I will assume some familiarity with programming, and hence not explain the basic concepts common to most languages. Instead, I will focus on what makes Rust special.
