Rust Programming Tutorial #15 – Shadowing

Okay so in this video I talk you through the concept of ‘shadowing’ in Rust – which is almost like re-assigning a variable within the scope that you’re currently in.

You can use it to have independent versions of your variables within inner-scopes and freely do modifications on it without having to worry about the effects it would normally have on the outer scope.
