Make function argument mutable inside the function
-
mut
-
Sometimes you pass an argument and you would like to change that value inside the function (without chaning the external variable).
fn main() { let n = 1; println!("before: {n}"); do_something(n); println!("after: {n}"); } fn do_something(mut val: i32) { println!("start: {val}"); val += 1; println!("end: {val}"); }
before: 1
start: 1
end: 2
after: 1
