		Levitating 4 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: When O3 is 2x slower than O2 The first statement defines a closure. The second is an if-let statement. It's not chaotic, you're just unfamiliar with the syntax. I actually find the Rust syntax very natural, more than C in some areas.

typedef takes the identifier at the end of the statement.

The asterisk is used to de-reference but used to denote a reference in types.

While loops may take the condition after the block.
