rustHow to fill a Rust slice with a specific value?

Filling a Rust slice with a specific value can be done using the fill method. This method takes a value and fills the slice with that value.

Example

let mut slice = [0; 10];
slice.fill(5);

Output example

[5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5]

Code explanation

• let mut slice = [0; 10]: This creates a mutable slice of length 10, filled with the value 0.
• slice.fill(5): This calls the fill method on the slice, filling it with the value 5.
