rustHow to print pointer in Rust

In Rust, you can print a pointer by using the std::ptr::Pointer trait. To do this, you must first create a pointer to the data you want to print. Then, you can use the std::fmt::Pointer trait to print the pointer. For example:

let data = 10;
let ptr = &data;
println!("{:p}", ptr);

This will print the pointer to the data, which will look something like 0x7ffc9f9f9f90.

The std::fmt::Pointer trait also allows you to customize the output of the pointer. For example, you can specify the base of the pointer (hexadecimal, octal, etc.) and the width of the pointer. For more information, see the Rust documentation.
