Rust by Example

7.5.2 Guards

A match guard can be added to filter the arm.

fn main() { let pair = (2, -2); // TODO ^ Try different values for `pair` println!("Tell me about {:?}", pair); match pair { (x, y) if x == y => println!("These are twins"), // The ^ `if condition` part is a guard (x, y) if x + y == 0 => println!("Antimatter, kaboom!"), (x, _) if x % 2 == 1 => println!("The first one is odd"), _ => println!("No correlation..."), } }
