    //! The `Default` trait for types which may have meaningful default values.

    #![stable(feature = "rust1", since = "1.0.0")]

    /// A trait for giving a type a useful default value.
    ///
    /// Sometimes, you want to fall back to some kind of default value, and
    /// don't particularly care what it is. This comes up often with `struct`s
    /// that define a set of options:
    ///
    /// ```
    /// # #[allow(dead_code)]
    /// struct SomeOptions {
    ///     foo: i32,
    ///     bar: f32,
    /// }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// How can we define some default values? You can use `Default`:
    ///
    /// ```
    /// # #[allow(dead_code)]
    /// #[derive(Default)]
    /// struct SomeOptions {
    ///     foo: i32,
    ///     bar: f32,
    /// }
    ///
    /// fn main() {
    ///     let options: SomeOptions = Default::default();
    /// }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// Now, you get all of the default values. Rust implements `Default` for various primitives types.
    ///
    /// If you want to override a particular option, but still retain the other defaults:
    ///
    /// ```
    /// # #[allow(dead_code)]
    /// # #[derive(Default)]
    /// # struct SomeOptions {
    /// #     foo: i32,
    /// #     bar: f32,
    /// # }
    /// fn main() {
    ///     let options = SomeOptions { foo: 42, ..Default::default() };
    /// }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// ## Derivable
    ///
    /// This trait can be used with `#[derive]` if all of the type's fields implement
    /// `Default`. When `derive`d, it will use the default value for each field's type.
    ///
    /// ## How can I implement `Default`?
    ///
    /// Provide an implementation for the `default()` method that returns the value of
    /// your type that should be the default:
    ///
    /// ```
    /// # #![allow(dead_code)]
    /// enum Kind {
    ///     A,
    ///     B,
    ///     C,
    /// }
    ///
    /// impl Default for Kind {
    ///     fn default() -> Self { Kind::A }
    /// }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// # Examples
    ///
    /// ```
    /// # #[allow(dead_code)]
    /// #[derive(Default)]
    /// struct SomeOptions {
    ///     foo: i32,
    ///     bar: f32,
    /// }
    /// ```
    #[stable(feature = "rust1", since = "1.0.0")]
    pub trait Default: Sized {
        /// Returns the "default value" for a type.
        ///
        /// Default values are often some kind of initial value, identity value, or anything else that
        /// may make sense as a default.
        ///
        /// # Examples
        ///
        /// Using built-in default values:
        ///
        /// ```
        /// let i: i8 = Default::default();
        /// let (x, y): (Option<String>, f64) = Default::default();
        /// let (a, b, (c, d)): (i32, u32, (bool, bool)) = Default::default();

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
