Tuple Structs

What Are Tuple Structs?

  • Tuple Structs are a data type that is a hybrid between a tuple and a struct.

Why a tuple struct?

In the example above, when it is only a tuple we don’t know explicitly what each item in the tuple means. But when it is a tuple struct, we can assign a name to each item.

Define a Tuple Struct

  • Tuples can be of type struct by adding the struct keyword before the tuple name, followed by the data type of the variables enclosed within round brackets.

Initialize a Tuple Struct

A tuple struct can be initialized like a tuple.

Access a Tuple Struct

The tuple struct can be accessed using a . operator like a traditional struct.

Example

The following example declares a tuple struct named FruitQuantity.

  //define a tuple struct
struct FruitQuantity(String, i32);
// main function
fn main() {
    // create an instance
    let r1 = FruitQuantity("oranges".to_string(), 12);
    // access values of a tuple struct
    println!("r1--name:{} quantity:{}", r1.0, r1.1);
    // create an instance
    let r2 = FruitQuantity("mangoes".to_string(), 13);
    // access values of a tuple struct
    println!("r2--name:{} quantity:{}", r2.0, r2.1);   
}

output

  r1--name:oranges quantity:12
r2--name:mangoes quantity:13

  #[allow(unused_variables, unused_mut)]
use std::fs::File;
use std::io::{BufRead, BufReader};
 
fn main() {
   let filename = "sublist_input.txt";
   // Open the file in read-only mode (ignoring errors).
   let file = File::open(filename).unwrap();
   let reader = BufReader::new(file);
   let mut vec1 = vec![];
   let mut vec2 = vec![];
   // Read the file line by line using the lines() iterator from std::io::BufRead.
   for (index, line) in reader.lines().enumerate() {
       let line = line.unwrap(); // Ignore errors.
       // Show the line and its number.
       println!("{}", line.to_string());
       let mystr = line.to_string();
       let bar: Vec<&str> = mystr.split(", ").collect();
       let baz = bar.iter().map(|x| x.parse::<i64>());

       for x in baz {
           match x {
               Ok(i) => if index % 2 == 0 {vec1.push(i)} else {vec2.push(i)},
               Err(_) => println!("parse failed {:?}", x),
           }
       }
       if index % 2 == 1{
        println!("vec 1{:?}", vec1);  
        println!("vec 2{:?}", vec2);   
   
        println!("{}", Comparison::Superlist == sublist(&vec1, &vec1));
        println!("{}", Comparison::Equal == sublist(&vec1, &vec1));
        println!("{}", Comparison::Superlist == sublist(&vec2, &vec1));
