00:00:06,930 --> 00:00:10,320
- Welcome to Module 2: Rust
Ownership and Borrowing.

2
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,210
This is an area where Rust differs

3
00:00:12,210 --> 00:00:13,920
from most other languages.

4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,050
The Rust compiler is very strict

5
00:00:16,050 --> 00:00:19,230
about what happens when you
assign one variable to another.

6
00:00:19,230 --> 00:00:21,720
It defines rules about how data is copied

7
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,670
or moved between objects

8
00:00:23,670 --> 00:00:27,480
and how you can reference these
objects safely in your code

9
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,330
without having to use low-level pointers.

10
00:00:30,330 --> 00:00:32,490
The motivation is to
avoid some of the pitfalls

11
00:00:32,490 --> 00:00:36,360
and errors that are common in C and C++.

12
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,820
This is incredibly important

13
00:00:38,820 --> 00:00:42,213
so we'll discuss the rules
carefully and systematically.
