Function from_fn

pub fn from_fn<T, const N: usize, F>(cb: F) -> [T; N]
where
    F: FnMut(usize) -> T,

Creates an array of type [T; N], where each element T is the returned value from cb using that element’s index.

Arguments

• cb: Callback where the passed argument is the current array index.

Example

// type inference is helping us here, the way `from_fn` knows how many
// elements to produce is the length of array down there: only arrays of
// equal lengths can be compared, so the const generic parameter `N` is
// inferred to be 5, thus creating array of 5 elements.

let array = core::array::from_fn(|i| i);
// indexes are:    0  1  2  3  4
assert_eq!(array, [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]);

let array2: [usize; 8] = core::array::from_fn(|i| i * 2);
// indexes are:     0  1  2  3  4  5   6   7
assert_eq!(array2, [0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14]);

let bool_arr = core::array::from_fn::<_, 5, _>(|i| i % 2 == 0);
// indexes are:       0     1      2     3      4
assert_eq!(bool_arr, [true, false, true, false, true]);
