-// In part 00, I promised that we would eventually replace `read_vec` by a function
-// that actually asks the user to enter a bunch of numbers. Unfortunately,
-// I/O is a complicated topic, so the code to do that is not exactly pretty - but well,
-// let's get that behind us.

 
 // I/O is provided by the module `std::io`, so we first have import that with `use`.

-// Let's now go over this function line-by-line. First, we call the constructor of `Vec`
-// to create an empty vector. As mentioned in the previous part, `new` here is just
-// a static function with no special treatment. While it is possible to call `new`
-// for a particular type (`Vec::<i32>::new()`), the common way to make sure we
-// get the right type is to annotate a type at the *variable*. It is this variable
-// that we interact with for the rest of the function, so having its type available
-// (and visible!) is much more useful. Without knowing the return type of `Vec::new`,
-// specifying its type parameter doesn't tell us all that much.

 fn read_vec() -> Vec<i32> {
     let mut vec: Vec<i32> = Vec::<i32>::new();
     // The central handle to the standard input is made available by `io::stdin()`.
     let stdin = io::stdin();
     println!("Enter a list of numbers, one per line. End with Ctrl-D.");

     let stdin = io::stdin();
     println!("Enter a list of numbers, one per line. End with Ctrl-D.");

-    // We would now like to iterate over standard input line-by-line. We can use a `for` loop
-    // for that, but there is a catch: What happens if there is some other piece of code running
-    // concurrently, that also reads from standard input? The result would be a mess. Hence
-    // Rust requires us to `lock()` standard input if we want to perform large operations on
-    // it. (See [the documentation](http://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/io/struct.Stdin.html) for more
-    // details.) 

     for line in stdin.lock().lines() {
         // Rust's type for (dynamic, growable) strings is `String`. However, our variable `line`
     for line in stdin.lock().lines() {
         // Rust's type for (dynamic, growable) strings is `String`. However, our variable `line`

-        // here is not yet of that type. The problem with I/O is that it can always go wrong, so
-        // `line` has type `io::Result<String>`. This is a lot like `Option<String>` ("a `String` or
-        // nothing"), but in the case of "nothing", there is additional information about the error.
-        // Again, I recommend to check [the documentation](http://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/io/type.Result.html).
-        // You will see that `io::Result` is actually just an alias for `Result`, so click on that to obtain
-        // the list of all constructors and methods of the type.
+        // here is not yet of that type: It has type `io::Result<String>`.

 
 

-        // We will be lazy here and just assume that nothing goes wrong: `unwrap()` returns the `String` if there is one,
-        // and panics the program otherwise. Since a `Result` carries some details about the error that occurred,
-        // there will be a somewhat reasonable error message. Still, you would not want a user to see such
-        // an error, so in a "real" program, we would have to do proper error handling.
-        // Can you find the documentation of `Result::unwrap()`?
-        // 

         // I chose the same name (`line`) for the new variable to ensure that I will never, accidentally,
         // access the "old" `line` again.
         let line = line.unwrap();
         // I chose the same name (`line`) for the new variable to ensure that I will never, accidentally,
         // access the "old" `line` again.
         let line = line.unwrap();

-        // Now that we have our `String`, we want to make it an `i32`. `parse` is a method on `String` that
-        // can convert a string to anything. Try finding it's documentation!
+        // Now that we have our `String`, we want to make it an `i32`.

 
 

-        // In this case, Rust *could* figure out automatically that we need an `i32` (because of the return type
-        // of the function), but that's a bit too much magic for my taste. We are being more explicit here:
-        // `parse::<i32>` is `parse` with its generic type set to `i32`.

         match line.parse::<i32>() {
         match line.parse::<i32>() {

-            // `parse` returns again a `Result`, and this time we use a `match` to handle errors (like, the user entering
-            // something that is not a number).
-            // This is a common pattern in Rust: Operations that could go wrong will return `Option` or `Result`.
-            // The only way to get to the value we are interested in is through pattern matching (and through helper functions
-            // like `unwrap()`). If we call a function that returns a `Result`, and throw the return value away,
-            // the compiler will emit a warning. It is hence impossible for us to *forget* handling an error,
-            // or to accidentally use a value that doesn't make any sense because there was an error producing it.
