They blow your mind, since they are totally unexpected behaviours. They may still be cool, but they are unexpected and hence unintuitive.\n\nA language that are full of these is Perl. And one simple one is that you can take the string \"AAAAA\" and use addition on that, like \"AAAAA\"++ and you will get the result \"AAAAB\". Cool you may think, but is it really? Addition is normally used to increase the value of a number, that is a completely different operation than modifying a String. The string \"AAAAA\" cannot be said to be greater or less than \"AAAAB\", besides the very special case when we order it. But in general the name \"John\" is not considered to be higher/lower than \"Mark\", they are just different. So, even if it is cool to manipulate strings by using addition/subtraction, it is still bad language design and very unintuitive. Also, since perl is so loosely typed, it may also cause very unexpected bugs.

There's a similar Haskell idiom called session types. I have a bit of reservation about whether one can easily use Rust traits to mark out the permissible state sets that an operation can take, but that's because I don't know Rust at all. I do remember doing a hacky thing with TypeLits in Haskell to handle that. Basically you can have numbers in the type signatures and do some limited arithmetic with them at type level. I'd be interested to know if that is doable in Rust.","removed":false,"published":"2024-10-16T20:53:03.975208Z","updated":"2024-10-16T20:56:00.582160Z","deleted":false,"ap_id":"https://lemmy.world/comment/12925667","local":false,"path":"0.12118539.12120847.12132174","distinguished":false,"language_id":0},"creator":{"id":228,"name":"solrize","banned":false,"published":"2023-06-20T18:11:21.631508Z","actor_id":"https://lemmy.world/u/solrize","local":false,"deleted":false,"bot_account":false,"instance_id":24},"post":{"id":14150917,"name":"What are some mind blowing Rust tricks?","body":"If we were to create a Rust version of [this page for Haskell](https://wiki.haskell.org/Blow_your_mind), what cool programming techniques would you add to it?","creator_id":12787548,"community_id":3477,"removed":false,"locked":false,"published":"2024-10-16T05:52:03.662509Z","updated":"2024-10-16T08:11:53.839699Z","deleted":false,"nsfw":false,"ap_id":"https://programming.dev/post/20617271","local":false,"language_id":37,"featured_community":false,"featured_local":false},"community":{"id":3477,"name":"rust","title":"Rust","description":"Welcome to the Rust community!

It's why Haskell's `Monoid` typeclass comes with the function `mappend`, not `madd`.\n\nIn Rust's defence though `std::ops` traits aren't meant to carry any semantics they're about syntax: It's called `Add` because it's `+`, not because it means something. I do think it would've been worth it to introduce `++` for general appending (also vectors, sets, maps, etc), though, to keep things clean. Also `++=` for the mutating case.
