1/// Creates a [`Vec`] containing the arguments.
2///
3/// `vec!` allows `Vec`s to be defined with the same syntax as array expressions.
4/// There are two forms of this macro:
5///
6/// - Create a [`Vec`] containing a given list of elements:
7///
8/// ```
9/// let v = vec![1, 2, 3];
10/// assert_eq!(v[0], 1);
11/// assert_eq!(v[1], 2);
12/// assert_eq!(v[2], 3);
13/// ```
14///
15/// - Create a [`Vec`] from a given element and size:
16///
17/// ```
18/// let v = vec![1; 3];
19/// assert_eq!(v, [1, 1, 1]);
20/// ```
21///
22/// Note that unlike array expressions this syntax supports all elements
23/// which implement [`Clone`] and the number of elements doesn't have to be
24/// a constant.
25///
26/// This will use `clone` to duplicate an expression, so one should be careful
27/// using this with types having a nonstandard `Clone` implementation. For
28/// example, `vec![Rc::new(1); 5]` will create a vector of five references
29/// to the same boxed integer value, not five references pointing to independently
30/// boxed integers.
31///
32/// Also, note that `vec![expr; 0]` is allowed, and produces an empty vector.
33/// This will still evaluate `expr`, however, and immediately drop the resulting value, so
34/// be mindful of side effects.

58/// Creates a `String` using interpolation of runtime expressions.
59///
60/// The first argument `format!` receives is a format string. This must be a string
61/// literal. The power of the formatting string is in the `{}`s contained.
62/// Additional parameters passed to `format!` replace the `{}`s within the
63/// formatting string in the order given unless named or positional parameters
64/// are used.
65///
66/// See [the formatting syntax documentation in `std::fmt`](../std/fmt/index.html)
67/// for details.
68///
69/// A common use for `format!` is concatenation and interpolation of strings.
70/// The same convention is used with [`print!`] and [`write!`] macros,
71/// depending on the intended destination of the string; all these macros internally use [`format_args!`].
72///
73/// To convert a single value to a string, use the [`to_string`] method. This
74/// will use the [`Display`] formatting trait.
75///
76/// To concatenate literals into a `&'static str`, use the [`concat!`] macro.
77///

80/// [`format_args!`]: core::format_args

82/// [`Display`]: core::fmt::Display
83/// [`concat!`]: core::concat
84///
85/// # Panics
86///
87/// `format!` panics if a formatting trait implementation returns an error.
88/// This indicates an incorrect implementation
89/// since `fmt::Write for String` never returns an error itself.
90///
91/// # Examples
92///
93/// ```
94/// # #![allow(unused_must_use)]
95/// format!("test");                             // => "test"
96/// format!("hello {}", "world!");               // => "hello world!"
97/// format!("x = {}, y = {val}", 10, val = 30);  // => "x = 10, y = 30"
98/// let (x, y) = (1, 2);
99/// format!("{x} + {y} = 3");                    // => "1 + 2 = 3"
100/// ```
