rustPointer to array element in Rust


In Rust, a pointer to an array element is created using the & operator. For example, to create a pointer to the first element of an array arr, the syntax would be &arr[0]. This pointer can then be used to access the element, or to pass it to a function. Additionally, the std::slice::from_raw_parts function can be used to create a slice from a pointer to an array element. This function takes a pointer and a length as arguments, and returns a slice of the array starting from the pointer. For example, std::slice::from_raw_parts(&arr[0], arr.len()) would create a slice of the entire array.
