// The three fundamental rules of ownership

fn main() {
    // Rule 1: Each value has a single owner
    let s1 = String::from("hello");  // s1 is the owner

    // Rule 2: Only one variable can own a value at a time
    let s2 = s1;  // s1 is MOVED to s2
    // println!("{}", s1);  // ERROR: s1 is no longer valid
    println!("{}", s2);  // OK: s2 is now the owner

    // Rule 3: When the owner goes out of scope, the value is dropped
    {
        let s3 = String::from("world");
        // s3 is valid here
    }  // s3 goes out of scope, memory is automatically freed

    // Copy types: simple types are copied, not moved
    let x = 5;
    let y = x;  // x is COPIED, not moved
    println!("x = {}, y = {}", x, y);  // Both are valid
}

// Move in action with functions
fn take_ownership(s: String) {
    // s takes ownership of the String
    println!("{}", s);
}  // s is dropped here, memory freed

fn makes_copy(i: i32) {
    // i is a copy of the argument
    println!("{}", i);
}  // i goes out of scope, nothing special (Copy type)

fn ownership_with_functions() {
    let s = String::from("hello");
    take_ownership(s);  // s is moved into the function
    // println!("{}", s);  // ERROR: s is no longer valid

    let x = 5;
    makes_copy(x);  // x is copied
    println!("{}", x);  // OK: x is still valid
}

// Immutable and mutable references

fn main() {
    let mut s = String::from("hello");

    // IMMUTABLE REFERENCES (&T)
    // Can coexist in unlimited numbers
    let r1 = &s;  // immutable reference
    let r2 = &s;  // another immutable reference
    println!("{} and {}", r1, r2);  // OK

    // MUTABLE REFERENCE (&mut T)
    // Only one at a time, and no simultaneous immutable references
    let r3 = &mut s;  // mutable reference
    // let r4 = &s;  // ERROR: cannot have both immutable and mutable
    // let r5 = &mut s;  // ERROR: only one mutable reference allowed
    r3.push_str(" world");
    println!("{}", r3);

    // Reference scopes are limited to their last use

    println!("{}", r6);

// Practical example: modifying a struct

    fn set_name(&mut self, name: String) {
        self.name = name;

    // self: takes ownership (consumes the instance)
    fn into_name(self) -> String {
        self.name  // The User instance no longer exists after this
    }
}

fn borrowing_with_structs() {
    let mut user = User {
        name: String::from("Alice"),
        age: 30,

    // Reading

// fn dangling() -> &String {
//     let s = String::from("hello");

// The compiler often infers lifetimes automatically
