# Variables
### Binding and mutablity
1. 🌟 A variable can be used only if it has been initialized.
```rust,editable
// fix the error below with least modifying
fn main() {
let x: i32; // uninitialized but using, ERROR !
let y: i32; // uninitialized but also unusing, only warning
println!("{} is equal to 5", x);
}
```
2. 🌟 Use `mut` to mark a variable as mutable.
```rust,editable
// fill the blanks in code to make it compile
fn main() {
let __ = 1;
__ += 2;
println!("{} is equal to 3", x);
}
```
### Scope
A scope is the range within the program for which the item is valid.
3. 🌟
```rust,editable
// fix the error below with least modifying
fn main() {
let x: i32 = 10;
{
let y: i32 = 5;
println!("The value of x is {} and value of y is {}", x, y);
}
println!("The value of x is {} and value of y is {}", x, y);
}
```
4. 🌟🌟
```rust,editable
// fix the error with using of define_x
fn main() {
println!("{}, world", x);
}
fn define_x() {
let x = "hello";
}
```
### Shadowing
You can declare a new variable with the same name as a previous variable, here we can say **the first one is shadowed by the second one.
5. 🌟🌟
```rust,editable
// only modify `assert_eq!` to make the `println!` work(print `42` in terminal)
fn main() {
let x: i32 = 5;
{
let x = 12;
assert_eq!(x, 5);
}
assert_eq!(x, 12);
let x = 42;
println!("{}", x); // Prints "42".
}
```
6. 🌟🌟
```rust,editable
// remove a line in code to make it compile
fn main() {
let mut x: i32 = 1;
x = 7;
// shadowing and re-binding
let x = x;
x += 3;
let y = 4;
// shadowing
let y = "I can also be bound to text!";
}
```
### Unused varibles
1. fix the warning below with :
- 🌟 only one solution
- 🌟🌟 two distinct solutions
> Note: none of the solutions is to remove the line `let x = 1`
```rust,editable
fn main() {
let x = 1;
}
// warning: unused variable: `x`
```
### Destructuring
8. 🌟🌟 We can use a pattern with `let` to destructure a tuple to separate variables.
> Tips: you can use Shadowing or Mutability
```rust,editable
// fix the error below with least modifying
fn main() {
let (x, y) = (1, 2);
x += 2;
assert_eq!(x, 3);
assert_eq!(y, 2);
}
```
### Destructuring assignments
Introducing in Rust 1.59: You can now use tuple, slice, and struct patterns as the left-hand side of an assignment.
9. 🌟🌟
> Note: the feature `Destructuring assignments` need 1.59 or higher Rust version
```rust,editable
fn main() {
let (x, y);
(x,..) = (3, 4);
[.., y] = [1, 2];
// fill the blank to make the code work
assert_eq!([x,y], __);
}
```
> You can find the solutions [here](https://github.com/sunface/rust-by-practice)(under the solutions path), but only use it when you need it
