rustHow to zip two vectors in Rust?

Zipping two vectors in Rust can be done using the zip method. This method takes two iterators and returns a new iterator of tuples, where the first element of each tuple is taken from the first iterator, and the second element is taken from the second iterator.

Example code

let v1 = vec![1, 2, 3];
let v2 = vec![4, 5, 6];

let zipped: Vec<_> = v1.iter().zip(v2.iter()).collect();

println!("{:?}", zipped);

Output example

[(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6)]

Code explanation

• let v1 = vec![1, 2, 3];: creates a vector v1 with elements 1, 2, and 3.
• let v2 = vec![4, 5, 6];: creates a vector v2 with elements 4, 5, and 6.
• let zipped: Vec<_> = v1.iter().zip(v2.iter()).collect();: creates a new vector zipped by zipping v1 and v2 using the zip method. The zip method takes two iterators and returns a new iterator of tuples, where the first element of each tuple is taken from the first iterator, and the second element is taken from the second iterator. The collect method is then used to collect the iterator into a vector.
• println!("{:?}", zipped);: prints the vector zipped to the console.
