A fixed capacity String
Fields§
§vec: Vec<u8, N>
Implementations§
§impl<const N: usize> String<N>
impl<const N: usize> String<N>
pub const fn new() -> String<N>
pub const fn new() -> String<N>
Constructs a new, empty String
with a fixed capacity of N
bytes
Examples
Basic usage:
use heapless::String;
// allocate the string on the stack
let mut s: String<4> = String::new();
// allocate the string in a static variable
static mut S: String<4> = String::new();
pub fn into_bytes(self) -> Vec<u8, N>
pub fn into_bytes(self) -> Vec<u8, N>
Converts a String
into a byte vector.
This consumes the String
, so we do not need to copy its contents.
Examples
Basic usage:
use heapless::String;
let s: String<4> = String::from("ab");
let b = s.into_bytes();
assert!(b.len() == 2);
assert_eq!(&['a' as u8, 'b' as u8], &b[..]);
pub fn as_str(&self) -> &str
pub fn as_str(&self) -> &str
Extracts a string slice containing the entire string.
Examples
Basic usage:
use heapless::String;
let mut s: String<4> = String::from("ab");
assert!(s.as_str() == "ab");
let _s = s.as_str();
// s.push('c'); // <- cannot borrow `s` as mutable because it is also borrowed as immutable
pub fn as_mut_str(&mut self) -> &mut str
pub fn as_mut_str(&mut self) -> &mut str
Converts a String
into a mutable string slice.
Examples
Basic usage:
use heapless::String;
let mut s: String<4> = String::from("ab");
let s = s.as_mut_str();
s.make_ascii_uppercase();
pub unsafe fn as_mut_vec(&mut self) -> &mut Vec<u8, N>
pub unsafe fn as_mut_vec(&mut self) -> &mut Vec<u8, N>
Returns a mutable reference to the contents of this String
.
Safety
This function is unsafe because it does not check that the bytes passed
to it are valid UTF-8. If this constraint is violated, it may cause
memory unsafety issues with future users of the String
, as the rest of
the library assumes that String
s are valid UTF-8.
Examples
Basic usage:
let mut s = String::from("hello");
unsafe {
let vec = s.as_mut_vec();
assert_eq!(&[104, 101, 108, 108, 111][..], &vec[..]);
vec.reverse();
}
assert_eq!(s, "olleh");
pub fn push_str(&mut self, string: &str) -> Result<(), ()>
pub fn push_str(&mut self, string: &str) -> Result<(), ()>
Appends a given string slice onto the end of this String
.
Examples
Basic usage:
use heapless::String;
let mut s: String<8> = String::from("foo");
assert!(s.push_str("bar").is_ok());
assert_eq!("foobar", s);
assert!(s.push_str("tender").is_err());
pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize
pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize
Returns the maximum number of elements the String can hold
Examples
Basic usage:
use heapless::String;
let mut s: String<4> = String::new();
assert!(s.capacity() == 4);
pub fn push(&mut self, c: char) -> Result<(), ()>
pub fn push(&mut self, c: char) -> Result<(), ()>
pub fn truncate(&mut self, new_len: usize)
pub fn truncate(&mut self, new_len: usize)
Shortens this String
to the specified length.
If new_len
is greater than the string’s current length, this has no
effect.
Note that this method has no effect on the allocated capacity of the string
Panics
Panics if new_len
does not lie on a char
boundary.
Examples
Basic usage:
use heapless::String;
let mut s: String<8> = String::from("hello");
s.truncate(2);
assert_eq!("he", s);
pub fn pop(&mut self) -> Option<char>
pub fn pop(&mut self) -> Option<char>
Removes the last character from the string buffer and returns it.
Returns None
if this String
is empty.
Examples
Basic usage:
use heapless::String;
let mut s: String<8> = String::from("foo");
assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('o'));
assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('o'));
assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('f'));
assert_eq!(s.pop(), None);
pub fn clear(&mut self)
pub fn clear(&mut self)
Truncates this String
, removing all contents.
While this means the String
will have a length of zero, it does not
touch its capacity.
Examples
Basic usage:
use heapless::String;
let mut s: String<8> = String::from("foo");
s.clear();
assert!(s.is_empty());
assert_eq!(0, s.len());
assert_eq!(8, s.capacity());
Methods from Deref<Target = str>§
1.0.0pub fn len(&self) -> usize
pub fn len(&self) -> usize
Returns the length of self
.
This length is in bytes, not char
s or graphemes. In other words,
it might not be what a human considers the length of the string.
Examples
Basic usage:
let len = "foo".len();
assert_eq!(3, len);
assert_eq!("ƒoo".len(), 4); // fancy f!
assert_eq!("ƒoo".chars().count(), 3);
1.0.0pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool
Returns true
if self
has a length of zero bytes.
Examples
Basic usage:
let s = "";
assert!(s.is_empty());
let s = "not empty";
assert!(!s.is_empty());
1.9.0pub fn is_char_boundary(&self, index: usize) -> bool
pub fn is_char_boundary(&self, index: usize) -> bool
Checks that index
-th byte is the first byte in a UTF-8 code point
sequence or the end of the string.
The start and end of the string (when index == self.len()
) are
considered to be boundaries.
Returns false
if index
is greater than self.len()
.
Examples
let s = "Löwe 老虎 Léopard";
assert!(s.is_char_boundary(0));
// start of `老`
assert!(s.is_char_boundary(6));
assert!(s.is_char_boundary(s.len()));
// second byte of `ö`
assert!(!s.is_char_boundary(2));
// third byte of `老`
assert!(!s.is_char_boundary(8));
pub fn floor_char_boundary(&self, index: usize) -> usize
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (round_char_boundary
)
pub fn floor_char_boundary(&self, index: usize) -> usize
round_char_boundary
)Finds the closest x
not exceeding index
where is_char_boundary(x)
is true
.
This method can help you truncate a string so that it’s still valid UTF-8, but doesn’t exceed a given number of bytes. Note that this is done purely at the character level and can still visually split graphemes, even though the underlying characters aren’t split. For example, the emoji 🧑🔬 (scientist) could be split so that the string only includes 🧑 (person) instead.
Examples
#![feature(round_char_boundary)]
let s = "❤️🧡💛💚💙💜";
assert_eq!(s.len(), 26);
assert!(!s.is_char_boundary(13));
let closest = s.floor_char_boundary(13);
assert_eq!(closest, 10);
assert_eq!(&s[..closest], "❤️🧡");
pub fn ceil_char_boundary(&self, index: usize) -> usize
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (round_char_boundary
)
pub fn ceil_char_boundary(&self, index: usize) -> usize
round_char_boundary
)Finds the closest x
not below index
where is_char_boundary(x)
is true
.
This method is the natural complement to floor_char_boundary
. See that method
for more details.
Panics
Panics if index > self.len()
.
Examples
#![feature(round_char_boundary)]
let s = "❤️🧡💛💚💙💜";
assert_eq!(s.len(), 26);
assert!(!s.is_char_boundary(13));
let closest = s.ceil_char_boundary(13);
assert_eq!(closest, 14);
assert_eq!(&s[..closest], "❤️🧡💛");
1.0.0pub fn as_bytes(&self) -> &[u8]
pub fn as_bytes(&self) -> &[u8]
Converts a string slice to a byte slice. To convert the byte slice back
into a string slice, use the [from_utf8
] function.
Examples
Basic usage:
let bytes = "bors".as_bytes();
assert_eq!(b"bors", bytes);
1.20.0pub unsafe fn as_bytes_mut(&mut self) -> &mut [u8]
pub unsafe fn as_bytes_mut(&mut self) -> &mut [u8]
Converts a mutable string slice to a mutable byte slice.
Safety
The caller must ensure that the content of the slice is valid UTF-8
before the borrow ends and the underlying str
is used.
Use of a str
whose contents are not valid UTF-8 is undefined behavior.
Examples
Basic usage:
let mut s = String::from("Hello");
let bytes = unsafe { s.as_bytes_mut() };
assert_eq!(b"Hello", bytes);
Mutability:
let mut s = String::from("🗻∈🌏");
unsafe {
let bytes = s.as_bytes_mut();
bytes[0] = 0xF0;
bytes[1] = 0x9F;
bytes[2] = 0x8D;
bytes[3] = 0x94;
}
assert_eq!("🍔∈🌏", s);
1.0.0pub fn as_ptr(&self) -> *const u8
pub fn as_ptr(&self) -> *const u8
Converts a string slice to a raw pointer.
As string slices are a slice of bytes, the raw pointer points to a
[u8
]. This pointer will be pointing to the first byte of the string
slice.
The caller must ensure that the returned pointer is never written to.
If you need to mutate the contents of the string slice, use as_mut_ptr
.
Examples
Basic usage:
let s = "Hello";
let ptr = s.as_ptr();
1.36.0pub fn as_mut_ptr(&mut self) -> *mut u8
pub fn as_mut_ptr(&mut self) -> *mut u8
Converts a mutable string slice to a raw pointer.
As string slices are a slice of bytes, the raw pointer points to a
[u8
]. This pointer will be pointing to the first byte of the string
slice.
It is your responsibility to make sure that the string slice only gets modified in a way that it remains valid UTF-8.
1.20.0pub fn get<I>(&self, i: I) -> Option<&<I as SliceIndex<str>>::Output>where
I: SliceIndex<str>,
pub fn get<I>(&self, i: I) -> Option<&<I as SliceIndex<str>>::Output>where
I: SliceIndex<str>,
Returns a subslice of str
.
This is the non-panicking alternative to indexing the str
. Returns
[None
] whenever equivalent indexing operation would panic.
Examples
let v = String::from("🗻∈🌏");
assert_eq!(Some("🗻"), v.get(0..4));
// indices not on UTF-8 sequence boundaries
assert!(v.get(1..).is_none());
assert!(v.get(..8).is_none());
// out of bounds
assert!(v.get(..42).is_none());
1.20.0pub fn get_mut<I>(&mut self, i: I) -> Option<&mut <I as SliceIndex<str>>::Output>where
I: SliceIndex<str>,
pub fn get_mut<I>(&mut self, i: I) -> Option<&mut <I as SliceIndex<str>>::Output>where
I: SliceIndex<str>,
Returns a mutable subslice of str
.
This is the non-panicking alternative to indexing the str
. Returns
[None
] whenever equivalent indexing operation would panic.
Examples
let mut v = String::from("hello");
// correct length
assert!(v.get_mut(0..5).is_some());
// out of bounds
assert!(v.get_mut(..42).is_none());
assert_eq!(Some("he"), v.get_mut(0..2).map(|v| &*v));
assert_eq!("hello", v);
{
let s = v.get_mut(0..2);
let s = s.map(|s| {
s.make_ascii_uppercase();
&*s
});
assert_eq!(Some("HE"), s);
}
assert_eq!("HEllo", v);
1.20.0pub unsafe fn get_unchecked<I>(&self, i: I) -> &<I as SliceIndex<str>>::Outputwhere
I: SliceIndex<str>,
pub unsafe fn get_unchecked<I>(&self, i: I) -> &<I as SliceIndex<str>>::Outputwhere
I: SliceIndex<str>,
Returns an unchecked subslice of str
.
This is the unchecked alternative to indexing the str
.
Safety
Callers of this function are responsible that these preconditions are satisfied:
- The starting index must not exceed the ending index;
- Indexes must be within bounds of the original slice;
- Indexes must lie on UTF-8 sequence boundaries.
Failing that, the returned string slice may reference invalid memory or
violate the invariants communicated by the str
type.
Examples
let v = "🗻∈🌏";
unsafe {
assert_eq!("🗻", v.get_unchecked(0..4));
assert_eq!("∈", v.get_unchecked(4..7));
assert_eq!("🌏", v.get_unchecked(7..11));
}
1.20.0pub unsafe fn get_unchecked_mut<I>(
&mut self,

I: SliceIndex<str>,
pub unsafe fn get_unchecked_mut<I>(
&mut self,
i: I
) -> &mut <I as SliceIndex<str>>::Outputwhere
I: SliceIndex<str>,
Returns a mutable, unchecked subslice of str
.
This is the unchecked alternative to indexing the str
.

1.4.0pub fn split_at(&self, mid: usize) -> (&str, &str)
pub fn split_at(&self, mid: usize) -> (&str, &str)
Divide one string slice into two at an index.
The argument, mid
, should be a byte offset from the start of the
string. It must also be on the boundary of a UTF-8 code point.
The two slices returned go from the start of the string slice to mid
,
and from mid
to the end of the string slice.
To get mutable string slices instead, see the split_at_mut
method.
Panics
Panics if mid
is not on a UTF-8 code point boundary, or if it is
past the end of the last code point of the string slice.
Examples
Basic usage:
let s = "Per Martin-Löf";
let (first, last) = s.split_at(3);
assert_eq!("Per", first);
assert_eq!(" Martin-Löf", last);
1.4.0pub fn split_at_mut(&mut self, mid: usize) -> (&mut str, &mut str)
pub fn split_at_mut(&mut self, mid: usize) -> (&mut str, &mut str)
Divide one mutable string slice into two at an index.
The argument, mid
, should be a byte offset from the start of the
string. It must also be on the boundary of a UTF-8 code point.
The two slices returned go from the start of the string slice to mid
,
and from mid

Panics
Panics if mid
is not on a UTF-8 code point boundary, or if it is
past the end of the last code point of the string slice.
Examples
Basic usage:
let mut s = "Per Martin-Löf".to_string();
{
let (first, last) = s.split_at_mut(3);
first.make_ascii_uppercase();
assert_eq!("PER", first);
assert_eq!(" Martin-Löf", last);
}
assert_eq!("PER Martin-Löf", s);
1.0.0pub fn chars(&self) -> Chars<'_>
pub fn chars(&self) -> Chars<'_>
Returns an iterator over the char
s of a string slice.
As a string slice consists of valid UTF-8, we can iterate through a
string slice by char
. This method returns such an iterator.
It’s important to remember that char
represents a Unicode Scalar
Value, and might not match your idea of what a ‘character’ is. Iteration
over grapheme clusters may be what you actually want. This functionality
is not provided by Rust’s standard library, check crates.io instead.
Examples
Basic usage:
let word = "goodbye";
let count = word.chars().count();
assert_eq!(7, count);
let mut chars = word.chars();
assert_eq!(Some('g'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(Some('o'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(Some('o'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(Some('d'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(Some('b'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(Some('y'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(Some('e'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(None, chars.next());
Remember, char
s might not match your intuition about characters:
let y = "y̆";
let mut chars = y.chars();
assert_eq!(Some('y'), chars.next()); // not 'y̆'
assert_eq!(Some('\u{0306}'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(None, chars.next());
1.0.0pub fn char_indices(&self) -> CharIndices<'_>
pub fn char_indices(&self) -> CharIndices<'_>
Returns an iterator over the char
s of a string slice, and their
positions.
As a string slice consists of valid UTF-8, we can iterate through a
string slice by char
. This method returns an iterator of both
these char
s, as well as their byte positions.
The iterator yields tuples. The position is first, the char
is
second.
Examples
Basic usage:
let word = "goodbye";
let count = word.char_indices().count();
assert_eq!(7, count);
let mut char_indices = word.char_indices();
assert_eq!(Some((0, 'g')), char_indices.next());
assert_eq!(Some((1, 'o')), char_indices.next());
assert_eq!(Some((2, 'o')), char_indices.next());
assert_eq!(Some((3, 'd')), char_indices.next());
assert_eq!(Some((4, 'b')), char_indices.next());
assert_eq!(Some((5, 'y')), char_indices.next());
assert_eq!(Some((6, 'e')), char_indices.next());
assert_eq!(None, char_indices.next());
Remember, char
s might not match your intuition about characters:
let yes = "y̆es";
let mut char_indices = yes.char_indices();
assert_eq!(Some((0, 'y')), char_indices.next()); // not (0, 'y̆')
assert_eq!(Some((1, '\u{0306}')), char_indices.next());
// note the 3 here - the last character took up two bytes
assert_eq!(Some((3, 'e')), char_indices.next());
assert_eq!(Some((4, 's')), char_indices.next());
assert_eq!(None, char_indices.next());
1.0.0pub fn bytes(&self) -> Bytes<'_>
pub fn bytes(&self) -> Bytes<'_>
An iterator over the bytes of a string slice.
As a string slice consists of a sequence of bytes, we can iterate through a string slice by byte. This method returns such an iterator.
Examples
Basic usage:
let mut bytes = "bors".bytes();
assert_eq!(Some(b'b'), bytes.next());
assert_eq!(Some(b'o'), bytes.next());
assert_eq!(Some(b'r'), bytes.next());
assert_eq!(Some(b's'), bytes.next());
assert_eq!(None, bytes.next());
1.1.0pub fn split_whitespace(&self) -> SplitWhitespace<'_>
pub fn split_whitespace(&self) -> SplitWhitespace<'_>
Splits a string slice by whitespace.
The iterator returned will return string slices that are sub-slices of the original string slice, separated by any amount of whitespace.
‘Whitespace’ is defined according to the terms of the Unicode Derived
Core Property White_Space
. If you only want to split on ASCII whitespace
instead, use split_ascii_whitespace
.
Examples
Basic usage:
let mut iter = "A few words".split_whitespace();
assert_eq!(Some("A"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("few"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("words"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(None, iter.next());
All kinds of whitespace are considered:
let mut iter = " Mary had\ta\u{2009}little \n\t lamb".split_whitespace();
assert_eq!(Some("Mary"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("had"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("a"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("little"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("lamb"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(None, iter.next());
If the string is empty or all whitespace, the iterator yields no string slices:
assert_eq!("".split_whitespace().next(), None);
assert_eq!(" ".split_whitespace().next(), None);
1.34.0pub fn split_ascii_whitespace(&self) -> SplitAsciiWhitespace<'_>
pub fn split_ascii_whitespace(&self) -> SplitAsciiWhitespace<'_>
Splits a string slice by ASCII whitespace.
The iterator returned will return string slices that are sub-slices of the original string slice, separated by any amount of ASCII whitespace.
To split by Unicode Whitespace
instead, use split_whitespace
.
Examples
Basic usage:
let mut iter = "A few words".split_ascii_whitespace();
assert_eq!(Some("A"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("few"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("words"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(None, iter.next());
All kinds of ASCII whitespace are considered:
let mut iter = " Mary had\ta little \n\t lamb".split_ascii_whitespace();
assert_eq!(Some("Mary"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("had"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("a"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("little"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(Some("lamb"), iter.next());
assert_eq!(None, iter.next());
If the string is empty or all ASCII whitespace, the iterator yields no string slices:
assert_eq!("".split_ascii_whitespace().next(), None);
assert_eq!(" ".split_ascii_whitespace().next(), None);
1.0.0pub fn lines(&self) -> Lines<'_>
pub fn lines(&self) -> Lines<'_>
An iterator over the lines of a string, as string slices.
Lines are split at line endings that are either newlines (\n
) or
sequences of a carriage return followed by a line feed (\r\n
).
Line terminators are not included in the lines returned by the iterator.
The final line ending is optional. A string that ends with a final line ending will return the same lines as an otherwise identical string without a final line ending.
Examples
Basic usage:
let text = "foo\r\nbar\n\nbaz\n";
let mut lines = text.lines();
assert_eq!(Some("foo"), lines.next());
assert_eq!(Some("bar"), lines.next());
assert_eq!(Some(""), lines.next());
assert_eq!(Some("baz"), lines.next());
assert_eq!(None, lines.next());
The final line ending isn’t required:
let text = "foo\nbar\n\r\nbaz";
let mut lines = text.lines();
assert_eq!(Some("foo"), lines.next());
assert_eq!(Some("bar"), lines.next());
assert_eq!(Some(""), lines.next());
assert_eq!(Some("baz"), lines.next());
assert_eq!(None, lines.next());
1.0.0pub fn lines_any(&self) -> LinesAny<'_>
👎Deprecated since 1.4.0: use lines() instead now
pub fn lines_any(&self) -> LinesAny<'_>
An iterator over the lines of a string.
1.8.0pub fn encode_utf16(&self) -> EncodeUtf16<'_>
pub fn encode_utf16(&self) -> EncodeUtf16<'_>
Returns an iterator of u16
over the string encoded as UTF-16.
Examples
Basic usage:
let text = "Zażółć gęślą jaźń";
let utf8_len = text.len();
let utf16_len = text.encode_utf16().count();
assert!(utf16_len <= utf8_len);
1.0.0pub fn contains<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> boolwhere
P: Pattern<'a>,
pub fn contains<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> boolwhere
P: Pattern<'a>,
Returns true
if the given pattern matches a sub-slice of
this string slice.
Returns false
if it does not.
The pattern can be a &str
, char
, a slice of char
s, or a
function or closure that determines if a character matches.
Examples
Basic usage:
let bananas = "bananas";
assert!(bananas.contains("nana"));
assert!(!bananas.contains("apples"));
1.0.0pub fn starts_with<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> boolwhere
P: Pattern<'a>,
pub fn starts_with<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> boolwhere
P: Pattern<'a>,
Returns true
if the given pattern matches a prefix of this
string slice.
Returns false
if it does not.
The pattern can be a &str
, char
, a slice of char
s, or a
function or closure that determines if a character matches.
Examples
Basic usage:
let bananas = "bananas";
assert!(bananas.starts_with("bana"));
assert!(!bananas.starts_with("nana"));
1.0.0pub fn ends_with<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> boolwhere

pub fn split<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> Split<'a, P>where

An iterator over substrings of this string slice, separated by characters matched by a pattern.
The pattern can be a &str
, char
, a slice of char
s, or a
function or closure that determines if a character matches.
Iterator behavior
The returned iterator will be a [DoubleEndedIterator
] if the pattern
allows a reverse search and forward/reverse search yields the same
elements. This is true for, e.g., char
, but not for &str
.
If the pattern allows a reverse search but its results might differ
from a forward search, the rsplit
method can be used.
Examples
Simple patterns:
let v: Vec<&str> = "Mary had a little lamb".split(' ').collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["Mary", "had", "a", "little", "lamb"]);
let v: Vec<&str> = "".split('X').collect();
assert_eq!(v, [""]);
let v: Vec<&str> = "lionXXtigerXleopard".split('X').collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["lion", "", "tiger", "leopard"]);
let v: Vec<&str> = "lion::tiger::leopard".split("::").collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["lion", "tiger", "leopard"]);
let v: Vec<&str> = "abc1def2ghi".split(char::is_numeric).collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["abc", "def", "ghi"]);
let v: Vec<&str> = "lionXtigerXleopard".split(char::is_uppercase).collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["lion", "tiger", "leopard"]);
If the pattern is a slice of chars, split on each occurrence of any of the characters:
let v: Vec<&str> = "2020-11-03 23:59".split(&['-', ' ', ':', '@'][..]).collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["2020", "11", "03", "23", "59"]);
A more complex pattern, using a closure:
let v: Vec<&str> = "abc1defXghi".split(|c| c == '1' || c == 'X').collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["abc", "def", "ghi"]);
If a string contains multiple contiguous separators, you will end up with empty strings in the output:
let x = "||||a||b|c".to_string();
let d: Vec<_> = x.split('|').collect();
assert_eq!(d, &["", "", "", "", "a", "", "b", "c"]);
Contiguous separators are separated by the empty string.
let x = "(///)".to_string();
let d: Vec<_> = x.split('/').collect();
assert_eq!(d, &["(", "", "", ")"]);
Separators at the start or end of a string are neighbored by empty strings.
let d: Vec<_> = "010".split("0").collect();
assert_eq!(d, &["", "1", ""]);
When the empty string is used as a separator, it separates every character in the string, along with the beginning and end of the string.
let f: Vec<_> = "rust".split("").collect();
assert_eq!(f, &["", "r", "u", "s", "t", ""]);
Contiguous separators can lead to possibly surprising behavior when whitespace is used as the separator. This code is correct:
let x = " a b c".to_string();
let d: Vec<_> = x.split(' ').collect();
assert_eq!(d, &["", "", "", "", "a", "", "b", "c"]);
It does not give you:
assert_eq!(d, &["a", "b", "c"]);
Use split_whitespace
for this behavior.

pub fn split_inclusive<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> SplitInclusive<'a, P>where
P: Pattern<'a>,
An iterator over substrings of this string slice, separated by
characters matched by a pattern. Differs from the iterator produced by
split
in that split_inclusive
leaves the matched part as the
terminator of the substring.
The pattern can be a &str

Returns a string slice with the prefix removed.
If the string starts with the pattern prefix
, returns substring after the prefix, wrapped
in Some
. Unlike trim_start_matches
, this method removes the prefix exactly once.
If the string does not start with prefix
, returns None
.
The pattern can be a &str
, char
, a slice of char
s, or a
function or closure that determines if a character matches.
Examples
assert_eq!("foo:bar".strip_prefix("foo:"), Some("bar"));
assert_eq!("foo:bar".strip_prefix("bar"), None);
assert_eq!("foofoo".strip_prefix("foo"), Some("foo"));

pub fn strip_suffix<'a, P>(&'a self, suffix: P) -> Option<&'a str>where
P: Pattern<'a>,
<P as Pattern<'a>>::Searcher: ReverseSearcher<'a>,
Returns a string slice with the suffix removed.
If the string ends with the pattern suffix
, returns the substring before the suffix,
wrapped in Some
. Unlike trim_end_matches
, this method removes the suffix exactly once.
If the string does not end with suffix
, returns None
.
The pattern can be a &str
, char
, a slice of char
s, or a
function or closure that determines if a character matches.
Examples
assert_eq!("bar:foo".strip_suffix(":foo"), Some("bar"));
assert_eq!("bar:foo".strip_suffix("bar"), None);
assert_eq!("foofoo".strip_suffix("foo"), Some("foo"));
1.30.0pub fn trim_end_matches<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> &'a strwhere

pub fn trim_end_matches<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> &'a strwhere
P: Pattern<'a>,
<P as Pattern<'a>>::Searcher: ReverseSearcher<'a>,
Returns a string slice with all suffixes that match a pattern repeatedly removed.
The pattern can be a &str
, char
, a slice of char
s, or a
function or closure that determines if a character matches.
Text directionality
A string is a sequence of bytes. end
in this context means the last
position of that byte string; for a left-to-right language like English or
Russian, this will be right side, and for right-to-left languages like
Arabic or Hebrew, this will be the left side.
Examples
Simple patterns:
assert_eq!("11foo1bar11".trim_end_matches('1'), "11foo1bar");
assert_eq!("123foo1bar123".trim_end_matches(char::is_numeric), "123foo1bar");
let x: &[_] = &['1', '2'];
assert_eq!("12foo1bar12".trim_end_matches(x), "12foo1bar");
A more complex pattern, using a closure:
assert_eq!("1fooX".trim_end_matches(|c| c == '1' || c == 'X'), "1foo");

👎Deprecated since 1.33.0: superseded by trim_start_matches
pub fn trim_left_matches<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> &'a strwhere
P: Pattern<'a>,
trim_start_matches
Returns a string slice with all prefixes that match a pattern repeatedly removed.
The pattern can be a &str
, char
, a slice of char
s, or a
function or closure that determines if a character matches.
Text directionality
A string is a sequence of bytes. ‘Left’ in this context means the first position of that byte string; for a language like Arabic or Hebrew which are ‘right to left’ rather than ‘left to right’, this will be the right side, not the left.
Examples
Basic usage:
assert_eq!("11foo1bar11".trim_left_matches('1'), "foo1bar11");
assert_eq!("123foo1bar123".trim_left_matches(char::is_numeric), "foo1bar123");
let x: &[_] = &['1', '2'];
assert_eq!("12foo1bar12".trim_left_matches(x), "foo1bar12");

1.0.0pub fn parse<F>(&self) -> Result<F, <F as FromStr>::Err>where
F: FromStr,
pub fn parse<F>(&self) -> Result<F, <F as FromStr>::Err>where
F: FromStr,
Parses this string slice into another type.
Because parse
is so general, it can cause problems with type
inference. As such, parse
is one of the few times you’ll see
the syntax affectionately known as the ‘turbofish’: ::<>
. This
helps the inference algorithm understand specifically which type
you’re trying to parse into.
parse
can parse into any type that implements the [FromStr
] trait.
Errors
Will return Err
if it’s not possible to parse this string slice into
the desired type.
Examples
Basic usage
let four: u32 = "4".parse().unwrap();
assert_eq!(4, four);
Using the ‘turbofish’ instead of annotating four
:
let four = "4".parse::<u32>();
assert_eq!(Ok(4), four);
Failing to parse:
let nope = "j".parse::<u32>();
assert!(nope.is_err());
1.23.0pub fn is_ascii(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_ascii(&self) -> bool
Checks if all characters in this string are within the ASCII range.
Examples
let ascii = "hello!\n";
let non_ascii = "Grüße, Jürgen ❤";
assert!(ascii.is_ascii());
assert!(!non_ascii.is_ascii());
1.23.0pub fn eq_ignore_ascii_case(&self, other: &str) -> bool
pub fn eq_ignore_ascii_case(&self, other: &str) -> bool
Checks that two strings are an ASCII case-insensitive match.
Same as to_ascii_lowercase(a) == to_ascii_lowercase(b)
,
but without allocating and copying temporaries.
Examples
assert!("Ferris".eq_ignore_ascii_case("FERRIS"));
assert!("Ferrös".eq_ignore_ascii_case("FERRöS"));
assert!(!"Ferrös".eq_ignore_ascii_case("FERRÖS"));
1.23.0pub fn make_ascii_uppercase(&mut self)
pub fn make_ascii_uppercase(&mut self)
Converts this string to its ASCII upper case equivalent in-place.
ASCII letters ‘a’ to ‘z’ are mapped to ‘A’ to ‘Z’, but non-ASCII letters are unchanged.
To return a new uppercased value without modifying the existing one, use
to_ascii_uppercase()
.
Examples
let mut s = String::from("Grüße, Jürgen ❤");
s.make_ascii_uppercase();
assert_eq!("GRüßE, JüRGEN ❤", s);
1.23.0pub fn make_ascii_lowercase(&mut self)
pub fn make_ascii_lowercase(&mut self)
Converts this string to its ASCII lower case equivalent in-place.
ASCII letters ‘A’ to ‘Z’ are mapped to ‘a’ to ‘z’, but non-ASCII letters are unchanged.
To return a new lowercased value without modifying the existing one, use
to_ascii_lowercase()
.
Examples
let mut s = String::from("GRÜßE, JÜRGEN ❤");
s.make_ascii_lowercase();
assert_eq!("grÜße, jÜrgen ❤", s);
1.34.0pub fn escape_debug(&self) -> EscapeDebug<'_>
pub fn escape_debug(&self) -> EscapeDebug<'_>
Return an iterator that escapes each char in self
with [char::escape_debug
].
Note: only extended grapheme codepoints that begin the string will be escaped.
Examples
As an iterator:
for c in "❤\n!".escape_debug() {
print!("{c}");
}
println!();
Using println!
directly:
println!("{}", "❤\n!".escape_debug());
Both are equivalent to:
println!("❤\\n!");
Using to_string
:
assert_eq!("❤\n!".escape_debug().to_string(), "❤\\n!");
1.34.0pub fn escape_default(&self) -> EscapeDefault<'_>
pub fn escape_default(&self) -> EscapeDefault<'_>
Return an iterator that escapes each char in self
with [char::escape_default
].
Examples
As an iterator:
for c in "❤\n!".escape_default() {
print!("{c}");
}
println!();
Using println!
directly:
println!("{}", "❤\n!".escape_default());
Both are equivalent to:
println!("\\u{{2764}}\\n!");
Using to_string
:
assert_eq!("❤\n!".escape_default().to_string(), "\\u{2764}\\n!");
1.34.0pub fn escape_unicode(&self) -> EscapeUnicode<'_>
pub fn escape_unicode(&self) -> EscapeUnicode<'_>
Return an iterator that escapes each char in self
with [char::escape_unicode
].
Examples
As an iterator:
for c in "❤\n!".escape_unicode() {
print!("{c}");
}
println!();
Using println!
directly:
println!("{}", "❤\n!".escape_unicode());
Both are equivalent to:
println!("\\u{{2764}}\\u{{a}}\\u{{21}}");
Using to_string
:
assert_eq!("❤\n!".escape_unicode().to_string(), "\\u{2764}\\u{a}\\u{21}");
