<h1 id="functional-language-features-iterators-and-closures"><a class="header" href="#functional-language-features-iterators-and-closures">Functional Language Features: Iterators and Closures</a></h1>
<p>Rust’s design has taken inspiration from many existing languages and
techniques, and one significant influence is <em>functional programming</em>.
Programming in a functional style often includes using functions as values by
passing them in arguments, returning them from other functions, assigning them
to variables for later execution, and so forth.</p>
<p>In this chapter, we won’t debate the issue of what functional programming is or
isn’t but will instead discuss some features of Rust that are similar to
features in many languages often referred to as functional.</p>
<p>More specifically, we’ll cover:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Closures</em>, a function-like construct you can store in a variable</li>
<li><em>Iterators</em>, a way of processing a series of elements</li>
<li>How to use closures and iterators to improve the I/O project in Chapter 12</li>
<li>The performance of closures and iterators (spoiler alert: They’re faster than
you might think!)</li>
</ul>
<p>We’ve already covered some other Rust features, such as pattern matching and
enums, that are also influenced by the functional style. Because mastering
closures and iterators is an important part of writing fast, idiomatic, Rust
code, we’ll devote this entire chapter to them.</p>

<h2 id="closures"><a class="header" href="#closures">Closures</a></h2>
<p>Rust’s closures are anonymous functions you can save in a variable or pass as
arguments to other functions. You can create the closure in one place and then
call the closure elsewhere to evaluate it in a different context. Unlike
functions, closures can capture values from the scope in which they’re defined.
We’ll demonstrate how these closure features allow for code reuse and behavior
customization.</p>

<a id="capturing-the-environment-with-closures"></a></p>
<h3 id="capturing-the-environment"><a class="header" href="#capturing-the-environment">Capturing the Environment</a></h3>
<p>We’ll first examine how we can use closures to capture values from the
environment they’re defined in for later use. Here’s the scenario: Every so
often, our T-shirt company gives away an exclusive, limited-edition shirt to
someone on our mailing list as a promotion. People on the mailing list can
optionally add their favorite color to their profile. If the person chosen for
a free shirt has their favorite color set, they get that color shirt. If the
person hasn’t specified a favorite color, they get whatever color the company
currently has the most of.</p>
<p>There are many ways to implement this. For this example, we’re going to use an
enum called <code>ShirtColor</code> that has the variants <code>Red</code> and <code>Blue</code> (limiting the
number of colors available for simplicity). We represent the company’s
inventory with an <code>Inventory</code> struct that has a field named <code>shirts</code> that
contains a <code>Vec&lt;ShirtColor&gt;</code> representing the shirt colors currently in stock.
The method <code>giveaway</code> defined on <code>Inventory</code> gets the optional shirt color
preference of the free-shirt winner, and it returns the shirt color the
person will get. This setup is shown in Listing 13-1.</p>

}

let store = Inventory {

};
let user_pref1 = Some(ShirtColor::Red);
let giveaway1 = store.giveaway(user_pref1);

"The user with preference {:?} gets {:?}",
user_pref1, giveaway1

let user_pref2 = None;
let giveaway2 = store.giveaway(user_pref2);

user_pref2, giveaway2
);
}</code></pre>

</figure>
<p>The <code>store</code> defined in <code>main</code> has two blue shirts and one red shirt remaining
to distribute for this limited-edition promotion. We call the <code>giveaway</code> method
for a user with a preference for a red shirt and a user without any preference.</p>
<p>Again, this code could be implemented in many ways, and here, to focus on
closures, we’ve stuck to concepts you’ve already learned, except for the body of
the <code>giveaway</code> method that uses a closure. In the <code>giveaway</code> method, we get the
user preference as a parameter of type <code>Option&lt;ShirtColor&gt;</code> and call the
<code>unwrap_or_else</code> method on <code>user_preference</code>. The <a href="../std/option/enum.Option.html#method.unwrap_or_else"><code>unwrap_or_else</code> method on
<code>Option&lt;T&gt;</code></a><!-- ignore --> is defined by the standard library.
It takes one argument: a closure without any arguments that returns a value <code>T</code>
(the same type stored in the <code>Some</code> variant of the <code>Option&lt;T&gt;</code>, in this case
<code>ShirtColor</code>). If the <code>Option&lt;T&gt;</code> is the <code>Some</code> variant, <code>unwrap_or_else</code>
returns the value from within the <code>Some</code>. If the <code>Option&lt;T&gt;</code> is the <code>None</code>
variant, <code>unwrap_or_else</code> calls the closure and returns the value returned by
the closure.</p>
<p>We specify the closure expression <code>|| self.most_stocked()</code> as the argument to
<code>unwrap_or_else</code>. This is a closure that takes no parameters itself (if the
closure had parameters, they would appear between the two vertical pipes). The
body of the closure calls <code>self.most_stocked()</code>. We’re defining the closure
here, and the implementation of <code>unwrap_or_else</code> will evaluate the closure
later if the result is needed.</p>
<p>Running this code prints the following:</p>

The user with preference None gets Blue
</code></pre>
<p>One interesting aspect here is that we’ve passed a closure that calls
<code>self.most_stocked()</code> on the current <code>Inventory</code> instance. The standard library
didn’t need to know anything about the <code>Inventory</code> or <code>ShirtColor</code> types we
defined, or the logic we want to use in this scenario. The closure captures an
immutable reference to the <code>self</code> <code>Inventory</code> instance and passes it with the
code we specify to the <code>unwrap_or_else</code> method. Functions, on the other hand,
are not able to capture their environment in this way.</p>

<h3 id="inferring-and-annotating-closure-types"><a class="header" href="#inferring-and-annotating-closure-types">Inferring and Annotating Closure Types</a></h3>
<p>There are more differences between functions and closures. Closures don’t
usually require you to annotate the types of the parameters or the return value
like <code>fn</code> functions do. Type annotations are required on functions because the
types are part of an explicit interface exposed to your users. Defining this
interface rigidly is important for ensuring that everyone agrees on what types
of values a function uses and returns. Closures, on the other hand, aren’t used
in an exposed interface like this: They’re stored in variables, and they’re
used without naming them and exposing them to users of our library.</p>
<p>Closures are typically short and relevant only within a narrow context rather
than in any arbitrary scenario. Within these limited contexts, the compiler can
infer the types of the parameters and the return type, similar to how it’s able
to infer the types of most variables (there are rare cases where the compiler
needs closure type annotations too).</p>
<p>As with variables, we can add type annotations if we want to increase
explicitness and clarity at the cost of being more verbose than is strictly
necessary. Annotating the types for a closure would look like the definition
shown in Listing 13-2. In this example, we’re defining a closure and storing it
in a variable rather than defining the closure in the spot we pass it as an
argument, as we did in Listing 13-1.</p>

<figcaption><a href="#listing-13-2">Listing 13-2</a>: Adding optional type annotations of the parameter and return value types in the closure</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>With type annotations added, the syntax of closures looks more similar to the
syntax of functions. Here, we define a function that adds 1 to its parameter and
a closure that has the same behavior, for comparison. We’ve added some spaces
to line up the relevant parts. This illustrates how closure syntax is similar
to function syntax except for the use of pipes and the amount of syntax that is
optional:</p>
<pre><code class="language-rust ignore">fn add_one_v1 (x: u32) -&gt; u32 { x + 1 }
let add_one_v2 = |x: u32| -&gt; u32 { x + 1 };
let add_one_v3 = |x| { x + 1 };
let add_one_v4 = |x| x + 1 ;</code></pre>
<p>The first line shows a function definition and the second line shows a fully
annotated closure definition. In the third line, we remove the type annotations
from the closure definition. In the fourth line, we remove the brackets, which
are optional because the closure body has only one expression. These are all
valid definitions that will produce the same behavior when they’re called. The
<code>add_one_v3</code> and <code>add_one_v4</code> lines require the closures to be evaluated to be
able to compile because the types will be inferred from their usage. This is
similar to <code>let v = Vec::new();</code> needing either type annotations or values of
some type to be inserted into the <code>Vec</code> for Rust to be able to infer the type.</p>
<p>For closure definitions, the compiler will infer one concrete type for each of
their parameters and for their return value. For instance, Listing 13-3 shows
the definition of a short closure that just returns the value it receives as a
parameter. This closure isn’t very useful except for the purposes of this
example. Note that we haven’t added any type annotations to the definition.
Because there are no type annotations, we can call the closure with any type,
which we’ve done here with <code>String</code> the first time. If we then try to call
<code>example_closure</code> with an integer, we’ll get an error.</p>

<h3 id="capturing-references-or-moving-ownership"><a class="header" href="#capturing-references-or-moving-ownership">Capturing References or Moving Ownership</a></h3>
<p>Closures can capture values from their environment in three ways, which
directly map to the three ways a function can take a parameter: borrowing
immutably, borrowing mutably, and taking ownership. The closure will decide
which of these to use based on what the body of the function does with the
captured values.</p>
<p>In Listing 13-4, we define a closure that captures an immutable reference to
the vector named <code>list</code> because it only needs an immutable reference to print
the value.</p>
<figure class="listing" id="listing-13-4">
<span class="file-name">Filename: src/main.rs</span>
<pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust edition2024">fn main() {
let list = vec![1, 2, 3];
println!("Before defining closure: {list:?}");
let only_borrows = || println!("From closure: {list:?}");

only_borrows();

}</code></pre>
<figcaption><a href="#listing-13-4">Listing 13-4</a>: Defining and calling a closure that captures an immutable reference</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>This example also illustrates that a variable can bind to a closure definition,
and we can later call the closure by using the variable name and parentheses as
if the variable name were a function name.</p>
<p>Because we can have multiple immutable references to <code>list</code> at the same time,
<code>list</code> is still accessible from the code before the closure definition, after
the closure definition but before the closure is called, and after the closure
is called. This code compiles, runs, and prints:</p>

<p>Next, in Listing 13-5, we change the closure body so that it adds an element to
the <code>list</code> vector. The closure now captures a mutable reference.</p>

<p>Note that there’s no longer a <code>println!</code> between the definition and the call of
the <code>borrows_mutably</code> closure: When <code>borrows_mutably</code> is defined, it captures a
mutable reference to <code>list</code>. We don’t use the closure again after the closure
is called, so the mutable borrow ends. Between the closure definition and the
closure call, an immutable borrow to print isn’t allowed, because no other
borrows are allowed when there’s a mutable borrow. Try adding a <code>println!</code>
there to see what error message you get!</p>
<p>If you want to force the closure to take ownership of the values it uses in the
environment even though the body of the closure doesn’t strictly need
ownership, you can use the <code>move</code> keyword before the parameter list.</p>
<p>This technique is mostly useful when passing a closure to a new thread to move
the data so that it’s owned by the new thread. We’ll discuss threads and why
you would want to use them in detail in Chapter 16 when we talk about
concurrency, but for now, let’s briefly explore spawning a new thread using a
closure that needs the <code>move</code> keyword. Listing 13-6 shows Listing 13-4 modified
to print the vector in a new thread rather than in the main thread.</p>
<figure class="listing" id="listing-13-6">
<span class="file-name">Filename: src/main.rs</span>
<pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust edition2024">use std::thread;

}</code></pre>
<figcaption><a href="#listing-13-6">Listing 13-6</a>: Using <code>move</code> to force the closure for the thread to take ownership of <code>list</code></figcaption>
</figure>
<p>We spawn a new thread, giving the thread a closure to run as an argument. The
closure body prints out the list. In Listing 13-4, the closure only captured
<code>list</code> using an immutable reference because that’s the least amount of access
to <code>list</code> needed to print it. In this example, even though the closure body
still only needs an immutable reference, we need to specify that <code>list</code> should
be moved into the closure by putting the <code>move</code> keyword at the beginning of the
closure definition. If the main thread performed more operations before calling
<code>join</code> on the new thread, the new thread might finish before the rest of the
main thread finishes, or the main thread might finish first. If the main thread
maintained ownership of <code>list</code> but ended before the new thread and drops
<code>list</code>, the immutable reference in the thread would be invalid. Therefore, the
compiler requires that <code>list</code> be moved into the closure given to the new thread
so that the reference will be valid. Try removing the <code>move</code> keyword or using
<code>list</code> in the main thread after the closure is defined to see what compiler
errors you get!</p>

<h3 id="moving-captured-values-out-of-closures"><a class="header" href="#moving-captured-values-out-of-closures">Moving Captured Values Out of Closures</a></h3>
<p>Once a closure has captured a reference or captured ownership of a value from
the environment where the closure is defined (thus affecting what, if anything,
is moved <em>into</em> the closure), the code in the body of the closure defines what
happens to the references or values when the closure is evaluated later (thus
affecting what, if anything, is moved <em>out of</em> the closure).</p>
<p>A closure body can do any of the following: Move a captured value out of the
closure, mutate the captured value, neither move nor mutate the value, or
capture nothing from the environment to begin with.</p>
<p>The way a closure captures and handles values from the environment affects
which traits the closure implements, and traits are how functions and structs
can specify what kinds of closures they can use. Closures will automatically
implement one, two, or all three of these <code>Fn</code> traits, in an additive fashion,
depending on how the closure’s body handles the values:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>FnOnce</code> applies to closures that can be called once. All closures implement
at least this trait because all closures can be called. A closure that moves
captured values out of its body will only implement <code>FnOnce</code> and none of the
other <code>Fn</code> traits because it can only be called once.</li>
<li><code>FnMut</code> applies to closures that don’t move captured values out of their body
but might mutate the captured values. These closures can be called more than
once.</li>
<li><code>Fn</code> applies to closures that don’t move captured values out of their body
and don’t mutate captured values, as well as closures that capture nothing
from their environment. These closures can be called more than once without
mutating their environment, which is important in cases such as calling a closure multiple times concurrently.</li>
</ul>
<p>Let’s look at the definition of the <code>unwrap_or_else</code> method on <code>Option&lt;T&gt;</code> that
we used in Listing 13-1:</p>
<pre><code class="language-rust ignore">impl&lt;T&gt; Option&lt;T&gt; {
pub fn unwrap_or_else&lt;F&gt;(self, f: F) -&gt; T
where
F: FnOnce() -&gt; T
{
match self {
Some(x) =&gt; x,
None =&gt; f(),
}
}
}</code></pre>
<p>Recall that <code>T</code> is the generic type representing the type of the value in the
<code>Some</code> variant of an <code>Option</code>. That type <code>T</code> is also the return type of the
<code>unwrap_or_else</code> function: Code that calls <code>unwrap_or_else</code> on an
<code>Option&lt;String&gt;</code>, for example, will get a <code>String</code>.</p>
<p>Next, notice that the <code>unwrap_or_else</code> function has the additional generic type
parameter <code>F</code>. The <code>F</code> type is the type of the parameter named <code>f</code>, which is
the closure we provide when calling <code>unwrap_or_else</code>.</p>
<p>The trait bound specified on the generic type <code>F</code> is <code>FnOnce() -&gt; T</code>, which
means <code>F</code> must be able to be called once, take no arguments, and return a <code>T</code>.
Using <code>FnOnce</code> in the trait bound expresses the constraint that
<code>unwrap_or_else</code> will not call <code>f</code> more than once. In the body of
<code>unwrap_or_else</code>, we can see that if the <code>Option</code> is <code>Some</code>, <code>f</code> won’t be
called. If the <code>Option</code> is <code>None</code>, <code>f</code> will be called once. Because all
closures implement <code>FnOnce</code>, <code>unwrap_or_else</code> accepts all three kinds of
closures and is as flexible as it can be.</p>
<section class="note" aria-role="note">
<p>Note: If what we want to do doesn’t require capturing a value from the
environment, we can use the name of a function rather than a closure where we
need something that implements one of the <code>Fn</code> traits. For example, on an
<code>Option&lt;Vec&lt;T&gt;&gt;</code> value, we could call <code>unwrap_or_else(Vec::new)</code> to get a
new, empty vector if the value is <code>None</code>. The compiler automatically
implements whichever of the <code>Fn</code> traits is applicable for a function
definition.</p>
</section>
<p>Now let’s look at the standard library method <code>sort_by_key</code>, defined on slices,
to see how that differs from <code>unwrap_or_else</code> and why <code>sort_by_key</code> uses
<code>FnMut</code> instead of <code>FnOnce</code> for the trait bound. The closure gets one argument
in the form of a reference to the current item in the slice being considered,
and it returns a value of type <code>K</code> that can be ordered. This function is useful
when you want to sort a slice by a particular attribute of each item. In
Listing 13-7, we have a list of <code>Rectangle</code> instances, and we use <code>sort_by_key</code>
to order them by their <code>width</code> attribute from low to high.</p>

it meets the trait bound requirements.</p>
<p>In contrast, Listing 13-8 shows an example of a closure that implements just

then moves <code>value</code> out of the closure by transferring ownership of <code>value</code> to
the <code>sort_operations</code> vector. This closure can be called once; trying to call
it a second time wouldn’t work, because <code>value</code> would no longer be in the
environment to be pushed into <code>sort_operations</code> again! Therefore, this closure
only implements <code>FnOnce</code>. When we try to compile this code, we get this error
that <code>value</code> can’t be moved out of the closure because the closure must

<p>The error points to the line in the closure body that moves <code>value</code> out of the
environment. To fix this, we need to change the closure body so that it doesn’t
move values out of the environment. Keeping a counter in the environment and
incrementing its value in the closure body is a more straightforward way to
count the number of times the closure is called. The closure in Listing 13-9
works with <code>sort_by_key</code> because it is only capturing a mutable reference to the
<code>num_sort_operations</code> counter and can therefore be called more than once.</p>

<p>The iterator pattern allows you to perform some task on a sequence of items in
turn. An iterator is responsible for the logic of iterating over each item and
determining when the sequence has finished. When you use iterators, you don’t
have to reimplement that logic yourself.</p>
<p>In Rust, iterators are <em>lazy</em>, meaning they have no effect until you call
methods that consume the iterator to use it up. For example, the code in
Listing 13-10 creates an iterator over the items in the vector <code>v1</code> by calling
the <code>iter</code> method defined on <code>Vec&lt;T&gt;</code>. This code by itself doesn’t do anything
useful.</p>
<figure class="listing" id="listing-13-10">

<pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust edition2024"><span class="boring">fn main() {

let v1_iter = v1.iter();
<span class="boring">}</span></code></pre>
<figcaption><a href="#listing-13-10">Listing 13-10</a>: Creating an iterator</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>The iterator is stored in the <code>v1_iter</code> variable. Once we’ve created an
iterator, we can use it in a variety of ways. In Listing 3-5, we iterated over
an array using a <code>for</code> loop to execute some code on each of its items. Under
the hood, this implicitly created and then consumed an iterator, but we glossed
over how exactly that works until now.</p>
<p>In the example in Listing 13-11, we separate the creation of the iterator from
the use of the iterator in the <code>for</code> loop. When the <code>for</code> loop is called using
the iterator in <code>v1_iter</code>, each element in the iterator is used in one
iteration of the loop, which prints out each value.</p>

<span class="file-name">Filename: src/main.rs</span>
<pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust edition2024"><span class="boring">fn main() {
</span> let v1 = vec![1, 2, 3];

for val in v1_iter {
println!("Got: {val}");
}
<span class="boring">}</span></code></pre>
<figcaption><a href="#listing-13-11">Listing 13-11</a>: Using an iterator in a <code>for</code> loop</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>In languages that don’t have iterators provided by their standard libraries,
you would likely write this same functionality by starting a variable at index
0, using that variable to index into the vector to get a value, and
incrementing the variable value in a loop until it reached the total number of
items in the vector.</p>
<p>Iterators handle all of that logic for you, cutting down on repetitive code you
could potentially mess up. Iterators give you more flexibility to use the same
logic with many different kinds of sequences, not just data structures you can
index into, like vectors. Let’s examine how iterators do that.</p>
<h3 id="the-iterator-trait-and-the-next-method"><a class="header" href="#the-iterator-trait-and-the-next-method">The <code>Iterator</code> Trait and the <code>next</code> Method</a></h3>
<p>All iterators implement a trait named <code>Iterator</code> that is defined in the
standard library. The definition of the trait looks like this:</p>
<pre class="playground"><code class="language-rust edition2024"><span class="boring">#![allow(unused)]
</span><span class="boring">fn main() {
</span>pub trait Iterator {
type Item;
fn next(&amp;mut self) -&gt; Option&lt;Self::Item&gt;;
// methods with default implementations elided
}
<span class="boring">}</span></code></pre>
<p>Notice that this definition uses some new syntax: <code>type Item</code> and <code>Self::Item</code>,
which are defining an associated type with this trait. We’ll talk about
associated types in depth in Chapter 20. For now, all you need to know is that
this code says implementing the <code>Iterator</code> trait requires that you also define
an <code>Item</code> type, and this <code>Item</code> type is used in the return type of the <code>next</code>
method. In other words, the <code>Item</code> type will be the type returned from the
iterator.</p>
<p>The <code>Iterator</code> trait only requires implementors to define one method: the
<code>next</code> method, which returns one item of the iterator at a time, wrapped in
<code>Some</code>, and, when iteration is over, returns <code>None</code>.</p>
<p>We can call the <code>next</code> method on iterators directly; Listing 13-12 demonstrates
what values are returned from repeated calls to <code>next</code> on the iterator created
from the vector.</p>
<figure class="listing" id="listing-13-12">
<span class="file-name">Filename: src/lib.rs</span>
<pre><code class="language-rust noplayground"><span class="boring">#[cfg(test)]
</span><span class="boring">mod tests {
</span> #[test]
fn iterator_demonstration() {
let v1 = vec![1, 2, 3];
let mut v1_iter = v1.iter();
assert_eq!(v1_iter.next(), Some(&amp;1));
assert_eq!(v1_iter.next(), Some(&amp;2));
assert_eq!(v1_iter.next(), Some(&amp;3));
assert_eq!(v1_iter.next(), None);
}
<span class="boring">}</span></code></pre>
<figcaption><a href="#listing-13-12">Listing 13-12</a>: Calling the <code>next</code> method on an iterator</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>Note that we needed to make <code>v1_iter</code> mutable: Calling the <code>next</code> method on an
iterator changes internal state that the iterator uses to keep track of where
it is in the sequence. In other words, this code <em>consumes</em>, or uses up, the
iterator. Each call to <code>next</code> eats up an item from the iterator. We didn’t need
to make <code>v1_iter</code> mutable when we used a <code>for</code> loop, because the loop took
ownership of <code>v1_iter</code> and made it mutable behind the scenes.</p>
<p>Also note that the values we get from the calls to <code>next</code> are immutable
references to the values in the vector. The <code>iter</code> method produces an iterator
over immutable references. If we want to create an iterator that takes
ownership of <code>v1</code> and returns owned values, we can call <code>into_iter</code> instead of
<code>iter</code>. Similarly, if we want to iterate over mutable references, we can call
<code>iter_mut</code> instead of <code>iter</code>.</p>
<h3 id="methods-that-consume-the-iterator"><a class="header" href="#methods-that-consume-the-iterator">Methods That Consume the Iterator</a></h3>
<p>The <code>Iterator</code> trait has a number of different methods with default
implementations provided by the standard library; you can find out about these
methods by looking in the standard library API documentation for the <code>Iterator</code>
trait. Some of these methods call the <code>next</code> method in their definition, which
is why you’re required to implement the <code>next</code> method when implementing the
<code>Iterator</code> trait.</p>
<p>Methods that call <code>next</code> are called <em>consuming adapters</em> because calling them
uses up the iterator. One example is the <code>sum</code> method, which takes ownership of
the iterator and iterates through the items by repeatedly calling <code>next</code>, thus
consuming the iterator. As it iterates through, it adds each item to a running
total and returns the total when iteration is complete. Listing 13-13 has a
test illustrating a use of the <code>sum</code> method.</p>

<p>We aren’t allowed to use <code>v1_iter</code> after the call to <code>sum</code>, because <code>sum</code> takes

<h3 id="methods-that-produce-other-iterators"><a class="header" href="#methods-that-produce-other-iterators">Methods That Produce Other Iterators</a></h3>
<p><em>Iterator adapters</em> are methods defined on the <code>Iterator</code> trait that don’t
consume the iterator. Instead, they produce different iterators by changing
some aspect of the original iterator.</p>
<p>Listing 13-14 shows an example of calling the iterator adapter method <code>map</code>,
which takes a closure to call on each item as the items are iterated through.
The <code>map</code> method returns a new iterator that produces the modified items. The
closure here creates a new iterator in which each item from the vector will be
incremented by 1.</p>

<p>The code in Listing 13-14 doesn’t do anything; the closure we’ve specified
never gets called. The warning reminds us why: Iterator adapters are lazy, and
we need to consume the iterator here.</p>
<p>To fix this warning and consume the iterator, we’ll use the <code>collect</code> method,
which we used with <code>env::args</code> in Listing 12-1. This method consumes the
iterator and collects the resultant values into a collection data type.</p>
<p>In Listing 13-15, we collect the results of iterating over the iterator that’s
returned from the call to <code>map</code> into a vector. This vector will end up
containing each item from the original vector, incremented by 1.</p>

<p>Because <code>map</code> takes a closure, we can specify any operation we want to perform
on each item. This is a great example of how closures let you customize some
behavior while reusing the iteration behavior that the <code>Iterator</code> trait
provides.</p>
<p>You can chain multiple calls to iterator adapters to perform complex actions in
a readable way. But because all iterators are lazy, you have to call one of the
consuming adapter methods to get results from calls to iterator adapters.</p>

<h3 id="closures-that-capture-their-environment"><a class="header" href="#closures-that-capture-their-environment">Closures That Capture Their Environment</a></h3>
<p>Many iterator adapters take closures as arguments, and commonly the closures
we’ll specify as arguments to iterator adapters will be closures that capture
their environment.</p>
<p>For this example, we’ll use the <code>filter</code> method that takes a closure. The
closure gets an item from the iterator and returns a <code>bool</code>. If the closure
returns <code>true</code>, the value will be included in the iteration produced by
<code>filter</code>. If the closure returns <code>false</code>, the value won’t be included.</p>
<p>In Listing 13-16, we use <code>filter</code> with a closure that captures the <code>shoe_size</code>
variable from its environment to iterate over a collection of <code>Shoe</code> struct
instances. It will return only shoes that are the specified size.</p>

</figure>
<p>At the time, we said not to worry about the inefficient <code>clone</code> calls because
we would remove them in the future. Well, that time is now!</p>
<p>We needed <code>clone</code> here because we have a slice with <code>String</code> elements in the
parameter <code>args</code>, but the <code>build</code> function doesn’t own <code>args</code>. To return
ownership of a <code>Config</code> instance, we had to clone the values from the <code>query</code>
and <code>file_path</code> fields of <code>Config</code> so that the <code>Config</code> instance can own its
values.</p>
<p>With our new knowledge about iterators, we can change the <code>build</code> function to
take ownership of an iterator as its argument instead of borrowing a slice.
We’ll use the iterator functionality instead of the code that checks the length
of the slice and indexes into specific locations. This will clarify what the
<code>Config::build</code> function is doing because the iterator will access the values.</p>
<p>Once <code>Config::build</code> takes ownership of the iterator and stops using indexing
operations that borrow, we can move the <code>String</code> values from the iterator into
<code>Config</code> rather than calling <code>clone</code> and making a new allocation.</p>

<p>The standard library documentation for the <code>env::args</code> function shows that the
type of the iterator it returns is <code>std::env::Args</code>, and that type implements
the <code>Iterator</code> trait and returns <code>String</code> values.</p>
<p>We’ve updated the signature of the <code>Config::build</code> function so that the
parameter <code>args</code> has a generic type with the trait bounds <code>impl Iterator&lt;Item = String&gt;</code> instead of <code>&amp;[String]</code>. This usage of the <code>impl Trait</code> syntax we
discussed in the <a href="../ch10/ch10-02-traits.html#traits-as-parameters">“Using Traits as Parameters”</a><!-- ignore -->
section of Chapter 10 means that <code>args</code> can be any type that implements the
<code>Iterator</code> trait and returns <code>String</code> items.</p>
<p>Because we’re taking ownership of <code>args</code> and we’ll be mutating <code>args</code> by
iterating over it, we can add the <code>mut</code> keyword into the specification of the
<code>args</code> parameter to make it mutable.</p>

<p>Remember that the first value in the return value of <code>env::args</code> is the name of
the program. We want to ignore that and get to the next value, so first we call
<code>next</code> and do nothing with the return value. Then, we call <code>next</code> to get the
value we want to put in the <code>query</code> field of <code>Config</code>. If <code>next</code> returns
<code>Some</code>, we use a <code>match</code> to extract the value. If it returns <code>None</code>, it means
not enough arguments were given, and we return early with an <code>Err</code> value. We do
the same thing for the <code>file_path</code> value.</p>

<p>We can write this code in a more concise way using iterator adapter methods.
Doing so also lets us avoid having a mutable intermediate <code>results</code> vector. The
functional programming style prefers to minimize the amount of mutable state to
make code clearer. Removing the mutable state might enable a future enhancement
to make searching happen in parallel because we wouldn’t have to manage
concurrent access to the <code>results</code> vector. Listing 13-22 shows this change.</p>

<figcaption><a href="#listing-13-22">Listing 13-22</a>: Using iterator adapter methods in the implementation of the <code>search</code> function</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>Recall that the purpose of the <code>search</code> function is to return all lines in
<code>contents</code> that contain the <code>query</code>. Similar to the <code>filter</code> example in Listing
13-16, this code uses the <code>filter</code> adapter to keep only the lines for which
<code>line.contains(query)</code> returns <code>true</code>. We then collect the matching lines into
another vector with <code>collect</code>. Much simpler! Feel free to make the same change
to use iterator methods in the <code>search_case_insensitive</code> function as well.</p>
<p>For a further improvement, return an iterator from the <code>search</code> function by
removing the call to <code>collect</code> and changing the return type to <code>impl Iterator&lt;Item = &amp;'a str&gt;</code> so that the function becomes an iterator adapter.
Note that you’ll also need to update the tests! Search through a large file
using your <code>minigrep</code> tool before and after making this change to observe the
difference in behavior. Before this change, the program won’t print any results
until it has collected all of the results, but after the change, the results
will be printed as each matching line is found because the <code>for</code> loop in the
<code>run</code> function is able to take advantage of the laziness of the iterator.</p>

<h3 id="choosing-between-loops-and-iterators"><a class="header" href="#choosing-between-loops-and-iterators">Choosing Between Loops and Iterators</a></h3>
<p>The next logical question is which style you should choose in your own code and
why: the original implementation in Listing 13-21 or the version using
iterators in Listing 13-22 (assuming we’re collecting all the results before
returning them rather than returning the iterator). Most Rust programmers
prefer to use the iterator style. It’s a bit tougher to get the hang of at
first, but once you get a feel for the various iterator adapters and what they
do, iterators can be easier to understand. Instead of fiddling with the various
bits of looping and building new vectors, the code focuses on the high-level
objective of the loop. This abstracts away some of the commonplace code so that
it’s easier to see the concepts that are unique to this code, such as the
filtering condition each element in the iterator must pass.</p>
<p>But are the two implementations truly equivalent? The intuitive assumption
might be that the lower-level loop will be faster. Let’s talk about performance.</p>

<h2 id="performance-in-loops-vs-iterators"><a class="header" href="#performance-in-loops-vs-iterators">Performance in Loops vs. Iterators</a></h2>
<p>To determine whether to use loops or iterators, you need to know which
implementation is faster: the version of the <code>search</code> function with an explicit
<code>for</code> loop or the version with iterators.</p>
<p>We ran a benchmark by loading the entire contents of <em>The Adventures of
Sherlock Holmes</em> by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle into a <code>String</code> and looking for the
word <em>the</em> in the contents. Here are the results of the benchmark on the
version of <code>search</code> using the <code>for</code> loop and the version using iterators:</p>
<pre><code class="language-text">test bench_search_for ... bench: 19,620,300 ns/iter (+/- 915,700)
test bench_search_iter ... bench: 19,234,900 ns/iter (+/- 657,200)
</code></pre>
<p>The two implementations have similar performance! We won’t explain the
benchmark code here because the point is not to prove that the two versions
are equivalent but to get a general sense of how these two implementations
compare performance-wise.</p>
<p>For a more comprehensive benchmark, you should check using various texts of
various sizes as the <code>contents</code>, different words and words of different lengths
as the <code>query</code>, and all kinds of other variations. The point is this:
Iterators, although a high-level abstraction, get compiled down to roughly the
same code as if you’d written the lower-level code yourself. Iterators are one
of Rust’s <em>zero-cost abstractions</em>, by which we mean that using the abstraction
imposes no additional runtime overhead. This is analogous to how Bjarne
Stroustrup, the original designer and implementor of C++, defines
zero-overhead in his 2012 ETAPS keynote presentation “Foundations of C++”:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>In general, C++ implementations obey the zero-overhead principle: What you
don’t use, you don’t pay for. And further: What you do use, you couldn’t hand
code any better.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>In many cases, Rust code using iterators compiles to the same assembly you’d
write by hand. Optimizations such as loop unrolling and eliminating bounds
checking on array access apply and make the resultant code extremely efficient.
Now that you know this, you can use iterators and closures without fear! They
make code seem like it’s higher level but don’t impose a runtime performance
penalty for doing so.</p>
<h2 id="summary"><a class="header" href="#summary">Summary</a></h2>
<p>Closures and iterators are Rust features inspired by functional programming
language ideas. They contribute to Rust’s capability to clearly express
high-level ideas at low-level performance. The implementations of closures and
iterators are such that runtime performance is not affected. This is part of
Rust’s goal to strive to provide zero-cost abstractions.</p>
<p>Now that we’ve improved the expressiveness of our I/O project, let’s look at
some more features of <code>cargo</code> that will help us share the project with the
world.</p>
