2 // ============================================
8 // So, let us write a function to "add with carry", and give it the appropriate type. Notice Rust's native support for pairs.
9 fn overflowing_add(a: u64, b: u64, carry: bool) -> (u64, bool) {
10 let sum = u64::wrapping_add(a, b);
11 // If an overflow happened, then the sum will be smaller than *both* summands. Without an overflow, of course, it will be
12 // at least as large as both of them. So, let's just pick one and check.
14 // The addition did not overflow. <br/>
15 // **Exercise 08.1**: Write the code to handle adding the carry in this case.
18 // The addition *did* overflow. It is impossible for the addition of the carry
19 // to overflow again, as we are just adding 0 or 1.
24 // `overflow_add` is a sufficiently intricate function that a test case is justified.
25 // This should also help you to check your solution of the exercise.
27 fn test_overflowing_add() {
28 assert_eq!(overflowing_add(10, 100, false), (110, false));
29 assert_eq!(overflowing_add(10, 100, true), (111, false));
30 assert_eq!(overflowing_add(1 << 63, 1 << 63, false), (0, true));
31 assert_eq!(overflowing_add(1 << 63, 1 << 63, true), (1, true));
32 assert_eq!(overflowing_add(1 << 63, (1 << 63) -1 , true), (0, true));
35 // ## Associated Types
36 impl ops::Add<BigInt> for BigInt {
38 // Here, we choose the result type to be again `BigInt`.
41 // Now we can write the actual function performing the addition.
42 fn add(self, rhs: BigInt) -> Self::Output {
43 // We know that the result will be *at least* as long as the longer of the two operands,
44 // so we can create a vector with sufficient capacity to avoid expensive reallocations.
45 let max_len = cmp::max(self.data.len(), rhs.data.len());
46 let mut result_vec:Vec<u64> = Vec::with_capacity(max_len);
47 let mut carry = false; /* the current carry bit */
49 // Compute next digit and carry. Store the digit for the result, and the carry for later.
50 let lhs_val = if i < self.data.len() { self.data[i] } else { 0 };
51 let rhs_val = if i < rhs.data.len() { rhs.data[i] } else { 0 };
54 // **Exercise 08.2**: Handle the final `carry`, and return the sum.
59 // ## Traits and borrowed types
61 // Writing this out becomes a bit tedious, because trait implementations (unlike functions) require full explicit annotation
62 // of lifetimes. Make sure you understand exactly what the following definition says.
63 impl<'a, 'b> ops::Add<&'a BigInt> for &'b BigInt {
65 fn add(self, rhs: &'a BigInt) -> Self::Output {
66 // **Exercise 08.3**: Implement this function.
73 // Rust calls a bunch of definitions that are grouped together a *module*. You can put definitions in a submodule as follows.
76 fn my_fun() -> MyType { 42 }
79 // For the purpose of testing, one typically introduces a module called `tests` and tells the compiler
80 // (by means of the `cfg` attribute) to only compile this module for tests.
85 let b1 = BigInt::new(1 << 32);
86 let b2 = BigInt::from_vec(vec![0, 1]);
88 assert_eq!(&b1 + &b2, BigInt::from_vec(vec![1 << 32, 1]));
89 // **Exercise 08.4**: Add some more testcases.
