This course provides the best approach to learn Rust, starting from the basics and advancing to complex topics. It is an introduction to Rust for beginners aspiring to become skilled Rust developers.

The word is out: developers love Rust. It's rapidly becoming a top choice for systems and embedded programmers, and the demand for Rust developers is rising. Known for its performance, reliability, and productivity—especially compared to C++—Rust is a powerful language to master. If you're a systems developer, it's a fantastic next step.
In this course, you'll learn Rust by actively engaging in coding. You’ll start with a simple "Hello world" program and cover essential concepts like arrays, strings, vectors, enums, structures, traits, generics, functions, and logic. You'll also dive into advanced topics such as lifetime and memory management.
By the end of this course, you'll have a solid foundation in Rust programming and be well-prepared to take on more advanced concepts, making it ideal for Rust beginners looking to become proficient Rust developers.

Rust Programming Language

# What are Strings?
Strings are a sequence of Unicode characters.
In Rust, a String is not null-terminated unlike strings in other programming languages. They can contain null characters. 


> **Note**: Have a look at the [unicode](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters) characters 


# Types of Strings
Strings are of two types: &str and String
## String Literal (`&str`)
   A String literal has the following properties:
   * Primitive type
   * Immutable 
   * Fixed-length string stored somewhere in memory
   * Value of string is known at compile time

> **Note**: A String literal is also known as a String slice.
   

### Create a String Literal 
The following illustration shows how to create a primitive string:



This lesson will discuss strings, the two different types, and how to create them in Rust.
