//! # The Rust Standard Library
//!
//! The Rust Standard Library provides the essential runtime
//! functionality for building portable Rust software.
//!
//! The rust standard library is available to all rust crates by
//! default, just as if contained an `extern crate std` import at the
//! crate root. Therefore the standard library can be accessed in
//! `use` statements through the path `std`, as in `use std::thread`,
//! or in expressions through the absolute path `::std`, as in
//! `::std::thread::sleep_ms(100)`.
//!
//! Furthermore, the standard library defines [The Rust
//! Prelude](prelude/index.html), a small collection of items, mostly
//! traits, that are imported into and available in every module.
//!
//! ## What is in the standard library
//!
//! The standard library is minimal, a set of battle-tested
//! core types and shared abstractions for the [broader Rust
//! ecosystem](https://crates.io) to build on.
//!
//! The [primitive types](#primitives), though not defined in the
//! standard library, are documented here, as are the predefined
//! [macros](#macros).
//!
//! ## Containers and collections
//!
//! The [`option`](option/index.html) and
//! [`result`](result/index.html) modules define optional and
//! error-handling types, `Option` and `Result`. The
//! [`iter`](iter/index.html) module defines Rust's iterator trait,
//! [`Iterator`](iter/trait.Iterator.html), which works with the `for`
//! loop to access collections.
//!
//! The common container type, `Vec`, a growable vector backed by an array,
//! lives in the [`vec`](vec/index.html) module. Contiguous, unsized regions
//! of memory, `[T]`, commonly called "slices", and their borrowed versions,
//! `&[T]`, commonly called "borrowed slices", are built-in types for which the
//! [`slice`](slice/index.html) module defines many methods.
//!
//! `&str`, a UTF-8 string, is a built-in type, and the standard library
//! defines methods for it on a variety of traits in the
//! [`str`](str/index.html) module. Rust strings are immutable;
//! use the `String` type defined in [`string`](string/index.html)
//! for a mutable string builder.
//!
//! For converting to strings use the [`format!`](fmt/index.html)
//! macro, and for converting from strings use the
//! [`FromStr`](str/trait.FromStr.html) trait.
//!
//! Data may be shared by placing it in a reference-counted box or the
//! [`Rc`][rc/index.html] type, and if further contained in a [`Cell`
//! or `RefCell`](cell/index.html), may be mutated as well as shared.
//! Likewise, in a concurrent setting it is common to pair an
//! atomically-reference-counted box, [`Arc`](sync/struct.Arc.html),
//! with a [`Mutex`](sync/struct.Mutex.html) to get the same effect.
//!
//! The [`collections`](collections/index.html) module defines maps,
//! sets, linked lists and other typical collection types, including
//! the common [`HashMap`](collections/struct.HashMap.html).
//!
//! ## Platform abstractions and I/O
//!
//! Besides basic data types, the standard library is largely concerned
//! with abstracting over differences in common platforms, most notably
//! Windows and Unix derivatives.
//!
//! Common types of I/O, including [files](fs/struct.File.html),
//! [TCP](net/struct.TcpStream.html),
//! [UDP](net/struct.UdpSocket.html), are defined in the
//! [`io`](io/index.html), [`fs`](fs/index.html), and
//! [`net`](net/index.html) modules.
//!
//! The [`thread`](thread/index.html) module contains Rust's threading
//! abstractions. [`sync`](sync/index.html) contains further
//! primitive shared memory types, including
//! [`atomic`](sync/atomic/index.html) and
//! [`mpsc`](sync/mpsc/index.html), which contains the channel types
//! for message passing.

// Do not remove on snapshot creation. Needed for bootstrap. (Issue #22364)
