rustHow to convert a Rust slice to a fixed array?

To convert a Rust slice to a fixed array, you can use the std::mem::transmute function. This function takes a slice and converts it to a fixed array of the same size.

Example code

let slice = [1, 2, 3];
let array: [i32; 3] = unsafe { std::mem::transmute(slice) };

Output example

[1, 2, 3]

Code explanation

• let slice = [1, 2, 3];: This line declares a slice of type [i32] with three elements.
• let array: [i32; 3]: This line declares a fixed array of type [i32; 3] with three elements.
• unsafe { std::mem::transmute(slice) }: This line uses the std::mem::transmute function to convert the slice to a fixed array.
