Day 7: Unleashing Functions in Rust 🚀

Greetings, code enthusiasts! On Day 7 of my #100DaysOfCode journey with Rust, let's dive into the world of functions - the building blocks of any great code composition.

Declaring Functions: The Rustic Way 🛠️

In Rust, functions start with the fn keyword, followed by a name, parentheses, and curly braces. You've already met the star of the show, the main function - the entry point of every Rust program:

fn main() {
    greet();
}

fn greet() {
    println!("Greetings, Rustacean!");
}

Quick Notes on Rustic Etiquette 📜

• Function names in Rust embrace snake_case: all lowercase with underscores between words.

• Choose names that are both descriptive and expressive to convey the function's purpose clearly.

• Avoid starting function names with numbers for the sake of readability.

Adding Flavor: Functions with Parameters 🌶️

Let's spice things up with functions that take parameters:

fn main() {
    greet("John Doe");
}

fn greet(name: &str) {
    println!("Greetings, {name}!!");
}

Note: Explicitly mention the parameter type for a dash of clarity.

---

Return of the Function: Functions with Return Values 🔄

Witness the grand return of functions with values:

fn main() {
    let result = add(10, 20);
    println!("The sum is {}", result);
}

fn add(a: i32, b: i32) -> i32 {
    a + b
}

Note: Indicate the return type after an arrow -> for a spectacular finale.

As the symphony of functions continues to play in Rust, I find joy in crafting code with clarity and purpose. Join me on Github for more updates! 💻🌐✨
