Introduction: The Rust Programming language
Rust is a system programming language (like C and C++, offering direct access to physical memory) sponsored by Mozilla, created in 2010. It is compiled, imperative, functional and strongly typed; it aims to provide better memory safety and still maintain a performance similar to C++, while providing garbage collection through reference counting. Rust won the first place as the "most loved programming language" in 2016 and 2017, in a survey from Stack Overflow 1 2.
Rust has a very strong emphasis in security, more specifically, memory safety. Because of this, the same rules that the compiler requires from a program end up solving many problems that are common in concurrent executions, such as race conditions. This project will explain what these security rules are, how they can prevent problems in parallel programming, as well as demonstrating the correct way to tackle concurrency with Rust.
