structs - Rust By Example
Description: A description

# structs

Similarly, a `struct` can be destructured as shown:

    fn main() {
        struct Foo { x: (u32, u32), y: u32 }

        // destructure members of the struct
        let foo = Foo { x: (1, 2), y: 3 };
        let Foo { x: (a, b), y } = foo;

        println!("a = {}, b = {},  y = {} ", a, b, y);

        // you can destructure structs and rename the variables,
        // the order is not important

        let Foo { y: i, x: j } = foo;
        println!("i = {:?}, j = {:?}", i, j);

        // and you can also ignore some variables:
        let Foo { y, .. } = foo;
        println!("y = {}", y);

        // this will give an error: pattern does not mention field `x`
        // let Foo { y } = foo;
    }
