+# Rust Style Guide
+
+## Motivation - why use a formatting tool?
+
+Formatting code is a mostly mechanical task which takes both time and mental
+effort. By using an automatic formatting tool, a programmer is relieved of
+this task and can concentrate on more important things.
+
+Furthermore, by sticking to an established style guide (such as this one),
+programmers don't need to formulate ad hoc style rules, nor do they need to
+debate with other programmers what style rules should be used, saving time,
+communication overhead, and mental energy.
+
+Humans comprehend information through pattern matching. By ensuring that all
+Rust code has similar formatting, less mental effort is required to comprehend a
+new project, lowering the barrier to entry for new developers.
+
+Thus, there are productivity benefits to using a formatting tool (such as
+rustfmt), and even larger benefits by using a community-consistent formatting,
+typically by using a formatting tool's default settings.
+
+
+## Formatting conventions
+
+### Indentation and line width
+
+* Use spaces, not tabs.
+* Each level of indentation must be four spaces (that is, all indentation
+  outside of string literals and comments must be a multiple of four).
+* The maximum width for a line is 100 characters.
+* A tool should be configurable for all three of these variables.
+
+
+### Blank lines
+
+Separate items and statements by either zero or one blank lines (i.e., one or
+two newlines). E.g,
+
+```rust
+fn foo() {
+    let x = ...;
+
+    let y = ...;
+    let z = ...;
+}
+
+fn bar() {}
+fn baz() {}
+```
+
+Formatting tools should make the bounds on blank lines configurable: there
+should be separate minimum and maximum numbers of newlines between both
+statements and (top-level) items (i.e., four options). As described above, the
+defaults for both statements and items should be minimum: 1, maximum: 2.
+
+
+### [Module-level items](items.md)
+### [Statements](statements.md)
+### [Expressions](expressions.md)
+### [Types](types.md)
+
+
+### Comments
+
+The following guidelines for comments are recommendations only, a mechanical
+formatter might skip formatting of comments.
+
+Prefer line comments (`//`) to block comments (`/* ... */`).
+
+When using line comments there should be a single space after the opening sigil.
+
+When using single-line block comments there should be a single space after the
+opening sigil and before the closing sigil. Multi-line block comments should
+have a newline after the opening sigil and before the closing sigil.
+
+Prefer to put a comment on its own line. Where a comment follows code, there
+should be a single space before it. Where a block comment is inline, there
+should be surrounding whitespace as if it were an identifier or keyword. There
+should be no trailing whitespace after a comment or at the end of any line in a
+multi-line comment. Examples:
+
+```rust
+// A comment on an item.
+struct Foo { ... }
+
+fn foo() {} // A comment after an item.
+
+pub fn foo(/* a comment before an argument */ x: T) {...}
+```
+
+Comments should usually be complete sentences. Start with a capital letter, end
+with a period (`.`). An inline block comment may be treated as a note without
+punctuation.
+
+Source lines which are entirely a comment should be limited to 80 characters
+in length (including comment sigils, but excluding indentation) or the maximum
+width of the line (including comment sigils and indentation), whichever is
+smaller:
+
+```rust
+// This comment goes up to the ................................. 80 char margin.
+
+{
+    // This comment is .............................................. 80 chars wide.
+}
+
+{
+    {
+        {
+            {
+                {
+                    {
+                        // This comment is limited by the ......................... 100 char margin.
+                    }
+                }
+            }
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+#### Doc comments
+
+Prefer line comments (`///`) to block comments (`/** ... */`).
+
+Prefer outer doc comments (`///` or `/** ... */`), only use inner doc comments
+(`//!` and `/*! ... */`) to write module-level or crate-level documentation.
+
+Doc comments should come before attributes.
+
+### Attributes
+
+Put each attribute on its own line, indented to the level of the item.
+In the case of inner attributes (`#!`), indent it to the level of the inside of
+the item. Prefer outer attributes, where possible.
+
+For attributes with argument lists, format like functions.
+
+```rust
+#[repr(C)]
+#[foo(foo, bar)]
+struct CRepr {
+    #![repr(C)]
+    x: f32,
+    y: f32,
+}
+```
+
+For attributes with an equal sign, there should be a single space before and
+after the `=`, e.g., `#[foo = 42]`.
+
+There must only be a single `derive` attribute. Note for tool authors: if
+combining multiple `derive` attributes into a single attribute, the ordering of
+the derived names should be preserved. E.g., `#[derive(bar)] #[derive(foo)]
+struct Baz;` should be formatted to `#[derive(bar, foo)] struct Baz;`.
+
+### *small* items
+
+In many places in this guide we specify that a formatter may format an item
+differently if it is *small*, for example struct literals:
+
+```rust
+// Normal formatting
+Foo {
+    f1: an_expression,
+    f2: another_expression(),
+}
+
+// *small* formatting
+Foo { f1, f2 }
+```
+
+We leave it to individual tools to decide on exactly what *small* means. In
+particular, tools are free to use different definitions in different
+circumstances.
+
+Some suitable heuristics are the size of the item (in characters) or the
+complexity of an item (for example, that all components must be simple names,
+not more complex sub-expressions). For more discussion on suitable heuristics,
+see [this issue](https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/fmt-rfcs/issues/47).
+
+Tools should give the user an option to ignore such heuristics and always use
+the normal formatting.

+## Expressions
+
+Prefer to use Rust's expression oriented nature where possible;
+
+```rust
+// use
+let x = if y { 1 } else { 0 };
+// not
+let x;
+if y {
+    x = 1;
+} else {

+
+## Names
+
+ * Types shall be `UpperCamelCase`,
+ * Enum variants shall be `UpperCamelCase`,
+ * Struct fields shall be `snake_case`,
+ * Function and method names shall be `snake_case`,
+ * Local variables shall be `snake_case`,
+ * Macro names shall be `snake_case`,
+ * Constants (`const`s and immutable `static`s) shall be `SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE`.
+ * When a name is forbidden because it is a reserved word (e.g., `crate`), use a
+   trailing underscore to make the name legal (e.g., `crate_`), or use raw
+   identifiers if possible.
+
+### Modules
+
+Avoid `#[path]` annotations where possible.

+# Cargo.toml conventions
+
+## Formatting conventions
+
+Use the same line width and indentation as Rust code.
+
+Put a blank line between the last key-value pair in a section and the header of
+the next section. Do not place a blank line between section headers and the
+key-value pairs in that section, or between key-value pairs in a section.
+
+Sort key names alphabetically within each section, with the exception of the
+`[package]` section. Put the `[package]` section at the top of the file; put
+the `name` and `version` keys in that order at the top of that section,
+followed by the remaining keys other than `description` in alphabetical order,
+followed by the `description` at the end of that section.
+
+Don't use quotes around any standard key names; use bare keys. Only use quoted
+keys for non-standard keys whose names require them, and avoid introducing such
+key names when possible.  See the [TOML
+specification](https://github.com/toml-lang/toml/blob/master/versions/en/toml-v0.4.0.md#table)
+for details.
+
+Put a single space both before and after the `=` between a key and value. Do
+not indent any key names; start all key names at the start of a line.
+
+Use multi-line strings (rather than newline escape sequences) for any string
+values that include multiple lines, such as the crate description.
+
+For array values, such as a list of authors, put the entire list on the same
+line as the key, if it fits. Otherwise, use block indentation: put a newline
+after the opening square bracket, indent each item by one indentation level,
+put a comma after each item (including the last), and put the closing square
+bracket at the start of a line by itself after the last item.
+
+```rust
+authors = [
+    "A Uthor <[email protected]>",
+    "Another Author <[email protected]>",
+]
+```
+
+For table values, such as a crate dependency with a path, write the entire
+table using curly braces and commas on the same line as the key if it fits. If
+the entire table does not fit on the same line as the key, separate it out into
+a separate section with key-value pairs:
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+crate1 = { path = "crate1", version = "1.2.3" }
+
+[dependencies.extremely_long_crate_name_goes_here]
+path = "extremely_long_path_name_goes_right_here"
+version = "4.5.6"
+```
+
+## Metadata conventions
+
+The authors list should consist of strings that each contain an author name
+followed by an email address in angle brackets: `Full Name <email@address>`.
+It should not contain bare email addresses, or names without email addresses.
+(The authors list may also include a mailing list address without an associated
+name.)
+
+The license field must contain a valid [SPDX
+expression](https://spdx.org/spdx-specification-21-web-version#h.jxpfx0ykyb60),
+using valid [SPDX license names](https://spdx.org/licenses/). (As an exception,
+by widespread convention, the license field may use `/` in place of ` OR `; for
+example, `MIT/Apache-2.0`.)
+
+The homepage field, if present, must consist of a single URL, including the
+scheme (e.g. `https://example.org/`, not just `example.org`.)
+
+Within the description field, wrap text at 80 columns. Don't start the
+description field with the name of the crate (e.g. "cratename is a ..."); just
+describe the crate itself. If providing a multi-sentence description, the first
+sentence should go on a line by itself and summarize the crate, like the
+subject of an email or commit message; subsequent sentences can then describe
+the crate in more detail.
