rustHow to format a string with integer in Rust


Formatting a string with an integer in Rust is done using the format! macro. This macro takes a format string and a list of arguments and returns a String object. The format string contains placeholders for the arguments, which are replaced with the values of the arguments.

Code example:

let x = 10;
let formatted_string = format!("The value of x is {}", x);

Output

The value of x is 10

Explanation:

  1. The let keyword is used to declare a variable x and assign it the value 10.
  2. The format! macro is used to create a String object from a format string and a list of arguments. In this case, the format string is "The value of x is {}" and the argument is x.
  3. The format! macro replaces the placeholder {} in the format string with the value of the argument x, which is 10.
  4. The format! macro returns a String object with the value The value of x is 10.
