Rust is a systems programming language that runs blazingly fast, prevents almost all crashes, and eliminates data races. Some of its features: - Algebraic data types, type inference - Pattern matching and closures - Concurrency without data races - Guaranteed memory safety - Optional garbage collection - Zero-cost abstractions - Minimal runtime - Efficient C bindings Rust is currently work-in-progress. Its development is driven by Mozilla with help of large open source community. WWW: http://www.rust-lang.org/
