//! # The Rust Prelude
//!
//! Rust comes with a variety of things in its standard library. However, if
//! you had to manually import every single thing that you used, it would be
//! very verbose. But importing a lot of things that a program never uses isn't
//! good either. A balance needs to be struck.
//!
//! The *prelude* is the list of things that Rust automatically imports into
//! every Rust program. It's kept as small as possible, and is focused on
//! things, particularly traits, which are used in almost every single Rust
//! program.
//!
//! # Other preludes
//!
//! Preludes can be seen as a pattern to make using multiple types more
//! convenient. As such, you'll find other preludes in the standard library,
//! such as [`std::io::prelude`]. Various libraries in the Rust ecosystem may
//! also define their own preludes.
//!
//! [`std::io::prelude`]: crate::io::prelude
//!
//! The difference between 'the prelude' and these other preludes is that they
//! are not automatically `use`'d, and must be imported manually. This is still
//! easier than importing all of their constituent components.
//!
//! # Prelude contents
//!
//! The items included in the prelude depend on the edition of the crate.
//! The first version of the prelude is used in Rust 2015 and Rust 2018,
//! and lives in [`std::prelude::v1`].
//! [`std::prelude::rust_2015`] and [`std::prelude::rust_2018`] re-export this prelude.
//! It re-exports the following:
//!
//! * <code>[std::marker]::{[Copy], [Send], [Sized], [Sync], [Unpin]}</code>,
//! marker traits that indicate fundamental properties of types.
//! * <code>[std::ops]::{[Fn], [FnMut], [FnOnce]}</code>, and their analogous
//! async traits, <code>[std::ops]::{[AsyncFn], [AsyncFnMut], [AsyncFnOnce]}</code>.
//! * <code>[std::ops]::[Drop]</code>, for implementing destructors.
//! * <code>[std::mem]::[drop]</code>, a convenience function for explicitly
//! dropping a value.
//! * <code>[std::mem]::{[size_of], [size_of_val]}</code>, to get the size of
//! a type or value.
//! * <code>[std::mem]::{[align_of], [align_of_val]}</code>, to get the
//! alignment of a type or value.
//! * <code>[std::boxed]::[Box]</code>, a way to allocate values on the heap.
//! * <code>[std::borrow]::[ToOwned]</code>, the conversion trait that defines
//! [`to_owned`], the generic method for creating an owned type from a
//! borrowed type.
//! * <code>[std::clone]::[Clone]</code>, the ubiquitous trait that defines
//! [`clone`][Clone::clone], the method for producing a copy of a value.
//! * <code>[std::cmp]::{[PartialEq], [PartialOrd], [Eq], [Ord]}</code>, the
//! comparison traits, which implement the comparison operators and are often
//! seen in trait bounds.
//! * <code>[std::convert]::{[AsRef], [AsMut], [Into], [From]}</code>, generic
//! conversions, used by savvy API authors to create overloaded methods.
//! * <code>[std::default]::[Default]</code>, types that have default values.
//! * <code>[std::iter]::{[Iterator], [Extend], [IntoIterator], [DoubleEndedIterator], [ExactSizeIterator]}</code>,
//! iterators of various
//! kinds.
//! * <code>[std::option]::[Option]::{[self][Option], [Some], [None]}</code>, a
//! type which expresses the presence or absence of a value. This type is so
//! commonly used, its variants are also exported.
//! * <code>[std::result]::[Result]::{[self][Result], [Ok], [Err]}</code>, a type
//! for functions that may succeed or fail. Like [`Option`], its variants are
//! exported as well.
//! * <code>[std::string]::{[String], [ToString]}</code>, heap-allocated strings.
//! * <code>[std::vec]::[Vec]</code>, a growable, heap-allocated vector.
//!
//! The prelude used in Rust 2021, [`std::prelude::rust_2021`], includes all of the above,
//! and in addition re-exports:
//!
//! * <code>[std::convert]::{[TryFrom], [TryInto]}</code>.
//! * <code>[std::iter]::[FromIterator]</code>.
//!
//! The prelude used in Rust 2024, [`std::prelude::rust_2024`], includes all of the above,
//! and in addition re-exports:
//!
//! * <code>[std::future]::{[Future], [IntoFuture]}</code>.
