 // Rust-101, Part 01: Expressions, Inherent methods
 // ================================================
 
-// Even though our code from the first part works, we can still learn a
-// lot by making it prettier. To understand how, it is important to
-// understand that Rust is an "expression-based" language. This means that most of the
-// terms you write down are not just *statements* (executing code), but *expressions*
-// (returning a value). This applies even to the body of entire functions!
+// For Rust to compile this file, make sure to enable the corresponding line
+// in `main.rs` before going on.
+
 
 // ## Expression-based programming
-// For example, consider `sqr`:
 fn sqr(i: i32) -> i32 { i * i }
-// Between the curly braces, we are giving the *expression* that computes the return value.
-// So we can just write `i * i`, the expression that returns the square if `i`!
-// This is very close to how mathematicians write down functions (but with more types).
 
 // Conditionals are also just expressions. You can compare this to the ternary `? :` operator
 // from languages like C.
 fn abs(i: i32) -> i32 { if i >= 0 { i } else { -i } }
 
-// And the same applies to case distinction with `match`: Every `arm` of the match
-// gives the expression that is returned in the respective case.
-// (We repeat the definition from the previous part here.)
