Is this a good place to request comments on a (really horrible) first Rust program?
https://github.com/tmmcguire/rust-toys/blob/master/mk_anadict.rs For inspiration (and because I have no actual creativity of my own), I picked up http://www.jeffknupp.com/blog/2013/01/04/creating-and-optimizing-a-letterpress-cheating-program-in-python/, which is basically an anagram solution generator; this first program generates a text dictionary of letter sequences to words, one mapping per line. I'm using Rust 0.5. * I used std::map::HashMap, although I have since read that LinerMap is more idiomatic? * I saw a suggestion to use @~str since ~str's seem to be better supported, library-wise, and I saw a suggestion to use @~str to avoid the copying warnings for bare ~str's. * After playing some more, I think read_lines is kind of silly. * For no readily apparent reason, I used @[] quite a bit. Should there be any special preferences for ~[]? Thanks in advance for any comments on correctness, style, idiom. -- Tommy M.
