# 1.0.0[−][src]Struct std::string::String

    pub struct String { /* fields omitted */ }

A UTF-8 encoded, growable string.

The `String` type is the most common string type that has ownership over the contents of the string. It has a close relationship with its borrowed counterpart, the primitive `str`.

# Examples

You can create a `String` from a literal string with `String::from`:

    let hello = String::from("Hello, world!");Run

You can append a `char` to a `String` with the `push` method, and append a `&str` with the `push_str` method:

    let mut hello = String::from("Hello, ");

    hello.push('w');
    hello.push_str("orld!");Run

If you have a vector of UTF-8 bytes, you can create a `String` from it with the `from_utf8` method:

    // some bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];

    // We know these bytes are valid, so we'll use `unwrap()`.
    let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).unwrap();

    assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);Run

# UTF-8

`String`s are always valid UTF-8. This has a few implications, the first of which is that if you need a non-UTF-8 string, consider `OsString`. It is similar, but without the UTF-8 constraint. The second implication is that you cannot index into a `String`:

ⓘThis example deliberately fails to compile

    let s = "hello";

    println!("The first letter of s is {}", s[0]); // ERROR!!!Run

Indexing is intended to be a constant-time operation, but UTF-8 encoding does not allow us to do this. Furthermore, it's not clear what sort of thing the index should return: a byte, a codepoint, or a grapheme cluster. The `bytes` and `chars` methods return iterators over the first two, respectively.

# Deref

`String`s implement `Deref``<Target=str>`, and so inherit all of `str`'s methods. In addition, this means that you can pass a `String` to a function which takes a `&str` by using an ampersand (`&`):

    fn takes_str(s: &str) { }

    let s = String::from("Hello");

    takes_str(&s);Run

This will create a `&str` from the `String` and pass it in. This conversion is very inexpensive, and so generally, functions will accept `&str`s as arguments unless they need a `String` for some specific reason.

In certain cases Rust doesn't have enough information to make this conversion, known as `Deref` coercion. In the following example a string slice `&'a str` implements the trait `TraitExample`, and the function `example_func` takes anything that implements the trait. In this case Rust would need to make two implicit conversions, which Rust doesn't have the means to do. For that reason, the following example will not compile.

ⓘThis example deliberately fails to compile

    trait TraitExample {}

    impl<'a> TraitExample for &'a str {}

    fn example_func<A: TraitExample>(example_arg: A) {}

    fn main() {
        let example_string = String::from("example_string");
        example_func(&example_string);
    }Run

There are two options that would work instead. The first would be to change the line `example_func(&example_string);` to `example_func(example_string.as_str());`, using the method `as_str()` to explicitly extract the string slice containing the string. The second way changes `example_func(&example_string);` to `example_func(&*example_string);`. In this case we are dereferencing a `String` to a `str`, then referencing the `str` back to `&str`. The second way is more idiomatic, however both work to do the conversion explicitly rather than relying on the implicit conversion.

# Representation

A `String` is made up of three components: a pointer to some bytes, a length, and a capacity. The pointer points to an internal buffer `String` uses to store its data. The length is the number of bytes currently stored in the buffer, and the capacity is the size of the buffer in bytes. As such, the length will always be less than or equal to the capacity.

This buffer is always stored on the heap.

You can look at these with the `as_ptr`, `len`, and `capacity` methods:

    use std::mem;

    let story = String::from("Once upon a time...");

    let ptr = story.as_ptr();
    let len = story.len();
    let capacity = story.capacity();

    // story has nineteen bytes
    assert_eq!(19, len);

    // Now that we have our parts, we throw the story away.
    mem::forget(story);

    // We can re-build a String out of ptr, len, and capacity. This is all
    // unsafe because we are responsible for making sure the components are
    // valid:
    let s = unsafe { String::from_raw_parts(ptr as *mut _, len, capacity) } ;

    assert_eq!(String::from("Once upon a time..."), s);Run

If a `String` has enough capacity, adding elements to it will not re-allocate. For example, consider this program:

    let mut s = String::new();

    println!("{}", s.capacity());

    for _ in 0..5 {
        s.push_str("hello");
        println!("{}", s.capacity());
    }Run

This will output the following:

    0
    5
    10
    20
    20
    40

At first, we have no memory allocated at all, but as we append to the string, it increases its capacity appropriately. If we instead use the `with_capacity` method to allocate the correct capacity initially:

    let mut s = String::with_capacity(25);

    println!("{}", s.capacity());

    for _ in 0..5 {
        s.push_str("hello");
        println!("{}", s.capacity());
    }Run

We end up with a different output:

    25
    25
    25
    25
    25
    25

Here, there's no need to allocate more memory inside the loop.

## Methods

### `impl String`[src]

#### `pub fn new() -> String`[src]

Creates a new empty `String`.

Given that the `String` is empty, this will not allocate any initial buffer. While that means that this initial operation is very inexpensive, it may cause excessive allocation later when you add data. If you have an idea of how much data the `String` will hold, consider the `with_capacity` method to prevent excessive re-allocation.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = String::new();Run

#### `pub fn with_capacity(capacity: usize) -> String`[src]

Creates a new empty `String` with a particular capacity.

`String`s have an internal buffer to hold their data. The capacity is the length of that buffer, and can be queried with the `capacity` method. This method creates an empty `String`, but one with an initial buffer that can hold `capacity` bytes. This is useful when you may be appending a bunch of data to the `String`, reducing the number of reallocations it needs to do.

If the given capacity is `0`, no allocation will occur, and this method is identical to the `new` method.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::with_capacity(10);

    // The String contains no chars, even though it has capacity for more
    assert_eq!(s.len(), 0);

    // These are all done without reallocating...
    let cap = s.capacity();
    for _ in 0..10 {
        s.push('a');
    }

    assert_eq!(s.capacity(), cap);

    // ...but this may make the vector reallocate
    s.push('a');Run

#### `pub fn from_utf8(vec: Vec<u8>) -> Result<String, FromUtf8Error>`[src]

Converts a vector of bytes to a `String`.

A string slice (`&str`) is made of bytes (`u8`), and a vector of bytes (`Vec<u8>`) is made of bytes, so this function converts between the two. Not all byte slices are valid `String`s, however: `String` requires that it is valid UTF-8. `from_utf8()` checks to ensure that the bytes are valid UTF-8, and then does the conversion.

If you are sure that the byte slice is valid UTF-8, and you don't want to incur the overhead of the validity check, there is an unsafe version of this function, `from_utf8_unchecked`, which has the same behavior but skips the check.

This method will take care to not copy the vector, for efficiency's sake.

If you need a `&str` instead of a `String`, consider `str::from_utf8`.

The inverse of this method is `as_bytes`.

# Errors

Returns `Err` if the slice is not UTF-8 with a description as to why the provided bytes are not UTF-8. The vector you moved in is also included.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // some bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];

    // We know these bytes are valid, so we'll use `unwrap()`.
    let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).unwrap();

    assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);Run

Incorrect bytes:

    // some invalid bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![0, 159, 146, 150];

    assert!(String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).is_err());Run

See the docs for `FromUtf8Error` for more details on what you can do with this error.

#### `pub fn from_utf8_lossy(v: &'a [u8]) -> Cow<'a, str>`[src]

Converts a slice of bytes to a string, including invalid characters.

Strings are made of bytes (`u8`), and a slice of bytes (`&[u8]`) is made of bytes, so this function converts between the two. Not all byte slices are valid strings, however: strings are required to be valid UTF-8. During this conversion, `from_utf8_lossy()` will replace any invalid UTF-8 sequences with `U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER`, which looks like this: �

If you are sure that the byte slice is valid UTF-8, and you don't want to incur the overhead of the conversion, there is an unsafe version of this function, `from_utf8_unchecked`, which has the same behavior but skips the checks.

This function returns a `Cow<'a, str>`. If our byte slice is invalid UTF-8, then we need to insert the replacement characters, which will change the size of the string, and hence, require a `String`. But if it's already valid UTF-8, we don't need a new allocation. This return type allows us to handle both cases.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // some bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];

    let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8_lossy(&sparkle_heart);

    assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);Run

Incorrect bytes:

    // some invalid bytes
    let input = b"Hello \xF0\x90\x80World";
    let output = String::from_utf8_lossy(input);

    assert_eq!("Hello �World", output);Run

#### `pub fn from_utf16(v: &[u16]) -> Result<String, FromUtf16Error>`[src]

Decode a UTF-16 encoded vector `v` into a `String`, returning `Err` if `v` contains any invalid data.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // 𝄞music
    let v = &[0xD834, 0xDD1E, 0x006d, 0x0075,
              0x0073, 0x0069, 0x0063];
    assert_eq!(String::from("𝄞music"),
               String::from_utf16(v).unwrap());

    // 𝄞mu<invalid>ic
    let v = &[0xD834, 0xDD1E, 0x006d, 0x0075,
              0xD800, 0x0069, 0x0063];
    assert!(String::from_utf16(v).is_err());Run

#### `pub fn from_utf16_lossy(v: &[u16]) -> String`[src]

Decode a UTF-16 encoded slice `v` into a `String`, replacing invalid data with the replacement character (`U+FFFD`).

Unlike `from_utf8_lossy` which returns a `Cow<'a, str>`, `from_utf16_lossy` returns a `String` since the UTF-16 to UTF-8 conversion requires a memory allocation.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // 𝄞mus<invalid>ic<invalid>
    let v = &[0xD834, 0xDD1E, 0x006d, 0x0075,
              0x0073, 0xDD1E, 0x0069, 0x0063,
              0xD834];

    assert_eq!(String::from("𝄞mus\u{FFFD}ic\u{FFFD}"),
               String::from_utf16_lossy(v));Run

#### `pub unsafe fn from_raw_parts(
buf: *mut u8,
length: usize,
capacity: usize
) -> String`[src]

Creates a new `String` from a length, capacity, and pointer.

# Safety

This is highly unsafe, due to the number of invariants that aren't checked:

- The memory at `ptr` needs to have been previously allocated by the same allocator the standard library uses.
- `length` needs to be less than or equal to `capacity`.
- `capacity` needs to be the correct value.

Violating these may cause problems like corrupting the allocator's internal data structures.

The ownership of `ptr` is effectively transferred to the `String` which may then deallocate, reallocate or change the contents of memory pointed to by the pointer at will. Ensure that nothing else uses the pointer after calling this function.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    use std::mem;

    unsafe {
        let s = String::from("hello");
        let ptr = s.as_ptr();
        let len = s.len();
        let capacity = s.capacity();

        mem::forget(s);

        let s = String::from_raw_parts(ptr as *mut _, len, capacity);

        assert_eq!(String::from("hello"), s);
    }Run

#### `pub unsafe fn from_utf8_unchecked(bytes: Vec<u8>) -> String`[src]

Converts a vector of bytes to a `String` without checking that the string contains valid UTF-8.

See the safe version, `from_utf8`, for more details.

# Safety

This function is unsafe because it does not check that the bytes passed to it are valid UTF-8. If this constraint is violated, it may cause memory unsafety issues with future users of the `String`, as the rest of the standard library assumes that `String`s are valid UTF-8.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // some bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];

    let sparkle_heart = unsafe {
        String::from_utf8_unchecked(sparkle_heart)
    };

    assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);Run

`pub fn into_bytes(self) -> Vec<u8>`[src]

Converts a `String` into a byte vector.

This consumes the `String`, so we do not need to copy its contents.

#### `pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize`[src]

Returns this `String`'s capacity, in bytes.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = String::with_capacity(10);

    assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);Run

#### `pub fn reserve(&mut self, additional: usize)`[src]

Ensures that this `String`'s capacity is at least `additional` bytes larger than its length.

The capacity may be increased by more than `additional` bytes if it chooses, to prevent frequent reallocations.

If you do not want this "at least" behavior, see the `reserve_exact` method.

# Panics

Panics if the new capacity overflows `usize`.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::new();

    s.reserve(10);

    assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);Run

This may not actually increase the capacity:

    let mut s = String::with_capacity(10);
    s.push('a');
    s.push('b');

    // s now has a length of 2 and a capacity of 10
    assert_eq!(2, s.len());
    assert_eq!(10, s.capacity());

#### `pub fn try_reserve(
&mut self,
additional: usize
) -> Result<(), CollectionAllocErr>`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`try_reserve` #48043)

new API

Tries to reserve capacity for at least `additional` more elements to be inserted in the given `String`. The collection may reserve more space to avoid frequent reallocations. After calling `reserve`, capacity will be greater than or equal to `self.len() + additional`. Does nothing if capacity is already sufficient.

# Errors

If the capacity overflows, or the allocator reports a failure, then an error is returned.

# Examples

#### `pub fn try_reserve_exact(
&mut self,
additional: usize
) -> Result<(), CollectionAllocErr>`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`try_reserve` #48043)

new API

Tries to reserves the minimum capacity for exactly `additional` more elements to be inserted in the given `String`. After calling `reserve_exact`, capacity will be greater than or equal to `self.len() + additional`. Does nothing if the capacity is already sufficient.

Note that the allocator may give the collection more space than it requests. Therefore capacity can not be relied upon to be precisely minimal. Prefer `reserve` if future insertions are expected.

# Errors

If the capacity overflows, or the allocator reports a failure, then an error is returned.

# Examples

Returns `true` if this `String` has a length of zero.

Returns `false` otherwise.

# Examples

#### `pub fn split_off(&mut self, at: usize) -> String`
1.16.0
[src]

Splits the string into two at the given index.

Returns a newly allocated `String`. `self` contains bytes `[0, at)`, and the returned `String` contains bytes `[at, len)`. `at` must be on the boundary of a UTF-8 code point.

Note that the capacity of `self` does not change.

# Panics

Panics if `at` is not on a `UTF-8` code point boundary, or if it is beyond the last code point of the string.

# Examples

    let mut hello = String::from("Hello, World!");
    let world = hello.split_off(7);
    assert_eq!(hello, "Hello, ");
    assert_eq!(world, "World!");Run

#### `pub fn clear(&mut self)`[src]

Truncates this `String`, removing all contents.

While this means the `String` will have a length of zero, it does not touch its capacity.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("foo");

    s.clear();

    assert!(s.is_empty());
    assert_eq!(0, s.len());
    assert_eq!(3, s.capacity());Run

1.6.0
[src]

Creates a draining iterator that removes the specified range in the `String` and yields the removed `chars`.

Note: The element range is removed even if the iterator is not consumed until the end.

# Panics

Panics if the starting point or end point do not lie on a `char` boundary, or if they're out of bounds.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("α is alpha, β is beta");
    let beta_offset = s.find('β').unwrap_or(s.len());

    // Remove the range up until the β from the string
    let t: String = s.drain(..beta_offset).collect();

The two slices returned go from the start of the string slice to `mid`, and from `mid` to the end of the string slice.

To get mutable string slices instead, see the `split_at_mut` method.

# Panics

Panics if `mid` is not on a UTF-8 code point boundary, or if it is beyond the last code point of the string slice.

# Examples

Basic usage:

`impl<'a> Iterator for Chars<'a> type Item = char;`
`pub fn chars(&self) -> Chars`[src]

Returns an iterator over the `char`s of a string slice.

As a string slice consists of valid UTF-8, we can iterate through a string slice by `char`. This method returns such an iterator.

It's important to remember that `char` represents a Unicode Scalar Value, and may not match your idea of what a 'character' is. Iteration over grapheme clusters may be what you actually want.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    assert_eq!(7, count);

    let mut chars = word.chars();

Returns an iterator over the `char`s of a string slice, and their positions.

As a string slice consists of valid UTF-8, we can iterate through a string slice by `char`. This method returns an iterator of both these `char`s, as well as their byte positions.

The iterator yields tuples. The position is first, the `char` is second.

# Examples

ⓘImportant traits for Split<'a, P>

### Important traits for Split<'a, P>

`impl<'a, P> Iterator for Split<'a, P> where
P: Pattern<'a>, type Item = &'a str;`
`pub fn split<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> Split<'a, P> where
P: Pattern<'a>,` [src]

An iterator over substrings of this string slice, separated by characters matched by a pattern.

The pattern can be a `&str`, `char`, or a closure that determines the split.

# Iterator behavior

The returned iterator will be a `DoubleEndedIterator` if the pattern allows a reverse search and forward/reverse search yields the same elements. This is true for, eg, `char` but not for `&str`.

If the pattern allows a reverse search but its results might differ from a forward search, the `rsplit` method can be used.

# Examples

Simple patterns:

    let v: Vec<&str> = "Mary had a little lamb".split(' ').collect();
    assert_eq!(v, ["Mary", "had", "a", "little", "lamb"]);

    let v: Vec<&str> = "".split('X').collect();
    assert_eq!(v, [""]);

    let v: Vec<&str> = "lionXXtigerXleopard".split('X').collect();
    assert_eq!(v, ["lion", "", "tiger", "leopard"]);

    let v: Vec<&str> = "lion::tiger::leopard".split("::").collect();
    assert_eq!(v, ["lion", "tiger", "leopard"]);

    let v: Vec<&str> = "abc1def2ghi".split(char::is_numeric).collect();
    assert_eq!(v, ["abc", "def", "ghi"]);

    let v: Vec<&str> = "lionXtigerXleopard".split(char::is_uppercase).collect();
    assert_eq!(v, ["lion", "tiger", "leopard"]);Run

A more complex pattern, using a closure:

    let v: Vec<&str> = "abc1defXghi".split(|c| c == '1' || c == 'X').collect();
    assert_eq!(v, ["abc", "def", "ghi"]);Run

If a string contains multiple contiguous separators, you will end up with empty strings in the output:

    let x = "||||a||b|c".to_string();
    let d: Vec<_> = x.split('|').collect();

    assert_eq!(d, &["", "", "", "", "a", "", "b", "c"]);Run

Contiguous separators are separated by the empty string.

    let x = "(///)".to_string();
    let d: Vec<_> = x.split('/').collect();

    assert_eq!(d, &["(", "", "", ")"]);Run

Separators at the start or end of a string are neighbored by empty strings.

    let d: Vec<_> = "010".split("0").collect();
    assert_eq!(d, &["", "1", ""]);Run

When the empty string is used as a separator, it separates every character in the string, along with the beginning and end of the string.

    let f: Vec<_> = "rust".split("").collect();
    assert_eq!(f, &["", "r", "u", "s", "t", ""]);Run

Contiguous separators can lead to possibly surprising behavior when whitespace is used as the separator. This code is correct:

    let x = "    a  b c".to_string();
    let d: Vec<_> = x.split(' ').collect();

    assert_eq!(d, &["", "", "", "", "a", "", "b", "c"]);Run

It does not give you:

ⓘThis example is not tested

    assert_eq!(d, &["a", "b", "c"]);Run

Use `split_whitespace` for this behavior.

<P as Pattern<'a>>::Searcher: ReverseSearcher<'a>,` [src]

An iterator over substrings of the given string slice, separated by characters matched by a pattern and yielded in reverse order.

The pattern can be a `&str`, `char`, or a closure that determines the split.

# Iterator behavior

The returned iterator requires that the pattern supports a reverse search, and it will be a `DoubleEndedIterator` if a forward/reverse search yields the same elements.

For iterating from the front, the `split` method can be used.

# Examples

Simple patterns:

    let v: Vec<&str> = "Mary had a little lamb".rsplit(' ').collect();

P: Pattern<'a>, type Item = &'a str;`
`pub fn split_terminator<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P) -> SplitTerminator<'a, P> where
P: Pattern<'a>,` [src]

An iterator over substrings of the given string slice, separated by characters matched by a pattern.

The pattern can be a `&str`, `char`, or a closure that determines the split.

Equivalent to `split`, except that the trailing substring is skipped if empty.

This method can be used for string data that is terminated, rather than separated by a pattern.

# Iterator behavior

The returned iterator will be a `DoubleEndedIterator` if the pattern allows a reverse search and forward/reverse search yields the same elements. This is true for, eg, `char` but not for `&str`.

If the pattern allows a reverse search but its results might differ from a forward search, the `rsplit_terminator` method can be used.

# Examples

Basic usage:

#### `pub fn parse<F>(&self) -> Result<F, <F as FromStr>::Err> where
F: FromStr,` [src]

Parses this string slice into another type.

Because `parse` is so general, it can cause problems with type inference. As such, `parse` is one of the few times you'll see the syntax affectionately known as the 'turbofish': `::<>`. This helps the inference algorithm understand specifically which type you're trying to parse into.

`parse` can parse any type that implements the `FromStr` trait.

# Errors

Will return `Err` if it's not possible to parse this string slice into the desired type.

# Examples

Basic usage

Checks that two strings are an ASCII case-insensitive match.

Same as `to_ascii_lowercase(a) == to_ascii_lowercase(b)`, but without allocating and copying temporaries.

# Examples

    assert!("Ferris".eq_ignore_ascii_case("FERRIS"));
    assert!("Ferrös".eq_ignore_ascii_case("FERRöS"));
    assert!(!"Ferrös".eq_ignore_ascii_case("FERRÖS"));Run

#### `pub fn make_ascii_uppercase(&mut self)`
1.23.0
[src]

Converts this string to its ASCII upper case equivalent in-place.

ASCII letters 'a' to 'z' are mapped to 'A' to 'Z', but non-ASCII letters are unchanged.

To return a new uppercased value without modifying the existing one, use `to_ascii_uppercase`.

#### `pub fn make_ascii_lowercase(&mut self)`
1.23.0
[src]

Converts this string to its ASCII lower case equivalent in-place.

ASCII letters 'A' to 'Z' are mapped to 'a' to 'z', but non-ASCII letters are unchanged.

To return a new lowercased value without modifying the existing one, use `to_ascii_lowercase`.

#### `
#[must_use = "this returns the replaced string as a new allocation, without modifying the original"]
pub fn replace<'a, P>(&'a self, from: P, to: &str) -> String where
P: Pattern<'a>,` [src]

Replaces all matches of a pattern with another string.

`replace` creates a new `String`, and copies the data from this string slice into it. While doing so, it attempts to find matches of a pattern. If it finds any, it replaces them with the replacement string slice.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = "this is old";

    assert_eq!("this is new", s.replace("old", "new"));Run

When the pattern doesn't match:

    let s = "this is old";
    assert_eq!(s, s.replace("cookie monster", "little lamb"));Run

#### `
#[must_use = "this returns the replaced string as a new allocation, without modifying the original"]
pub fn replacen<'a, P>(&'a self, pat: P, to: &str, count: usize) -> String where
P: Pattern<'a>,`
1.16.0
[src]

Replaces first N matches of a pattern with another string.

`replacen` creates a new `String`, and copies the data from this string slice into it. While doing so, it attempts to find matches of a pattern. If it finds any, it replaces them with the replacement string slice at most `count` times.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = "foo foo 123 foo";
    assert_eq!("new new 123 foo", s.replacen("foo", "new", 2));
    assert_eq!("faa fao 123 foo", s.replacen('o', "a", 3));
    assert_eq!("foo foo new23 foo", s.replacen(char::is_numeric, "new", 1));Run

When the pattern doesn't match:

    let s = "this is old";
    assert_eq!(s, s.replacen("cookie monster", "little lamb", 10));Run

#### `pub fn to_lowercase(&self) -> String`
1.2.0
[src]

Returns the lowercase equivalent of this string slice, as a new `String`.

'Lowercase' is defined according to the terms of the Unicode Derived Core Property `Lowercase`.

Since some characters can expand into multiple characters when changing the case, this function returns a `String` instead of modifying the parameter in-place.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = "HELLO";

    assert_eq!("hello", s.to_lowercase());Run

A tricky example, with sigma:

    let sigma = "Σ";

    assert_eq!("σ", sigma.to_lowercase());

    // but at the end of a word, it's ς, not σ:
    let odysseus = "ὈΔΥΣΣΕΎΣ";

    assert_eq!("ὀδυσσεύς", odysseus.to_lowercase());Run

Languages without case are not changed:

    let new_year = "农历新年";

    assert_eq!(new_year, new_year.to_lowercase());Run

#### `pub fn to_uppercase(&self) -> String`
1.2.0
[src]

Returns the uppercase equivalent of this string slice, as a new `String`.

'Uppercase' is defined according to the terms of the Unicode Derived Core Property `Uppercase`.

Since some characters can expand into multiple characters when changing the case, this function returns a `String` instead of modifying the parameter in-place.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = "hello";

    assert_eq!("HELLO", s.to_uppercase());Run

Scripts without case are not changed:

    let new_year = "农历新年";

    assert_eq!(new_year, new_year.to_uppercase());Run

#### `pub fn escape_debug(&self) -> String`[src]

#### `pub fn repeat(&self, n: usize) -> String`
1.16.0
[src]

    assert_eq!("abc".repeat(4), String::from("abcabcabcabc"));Run

A panic upon overflow:

    fn main() {
        // this will panic at runtime
        "0123456789abcdef".repeat(usize::max_value());
    }Run

#### `pub fn to_ascii_uppercase(&self) -> String`
1.23.0
[src]

Returns a copy of this string where each character is mapped to its ASCII upper case equivalent.

ASCII letters 'a' to 'z' are mapped to 'A' to 'Z', but non-ASCII letters are unchanged.

To uppercase the value in-place, use `make_ascii_uppercase`.

To uppercase ASCII characters in addition to non-ASCII characters, use `to_uppercase`.

# Examples

    let s = "Grüße, Jürgen ❤";

    assert_eq!("GRüßE, JüRGEN ❤", s.to_ascii_uppercase());Run

#### `pub fn to_ascii_lowercase(&self) -> String`
1.23.0
[src]

Returns a copy of this string where each character is mapped to its ASCII lower case equivalent.

ASCII letters 'A' to 'Z' are mapped to 'a' to 'z', but non-ASCII letters are unchanged.

### `impl<'a> Add<&'a str> for String`[src]

Implements the `+` operator for concatenating two strings.

This consumes the `String` on the left-hand side and re-uses its buffer (growing it if necessary). This is done to avoid allocating a new `String` and copying the entire contents on every operation, which would lead to `O(n^2)` running time when building an `n`-byte string by repeated concatenation.

The string on the right-hand side is only borrowed; its contents are copied into the returned `String`.

# Examples

Concatenating two `String`s takes the first by value and borrows the second:

    let a = String::from("hello");
    let b = String::from(" world");
    let c = a + &b;
    // `a` is moved and can no longer be used here.Run

If you want to keep using the first `String`, you can clone it and append to the clone instead:

    let a = String::from("hello");
    let b = String::from(" world");
    let c = a.clone() + &b;
    // `a` is still valid here.Run

Concatenating `&str` slices can be done by converting the first to a `String`:

    let a = "hello";
    let b = " world";
    let c = a.to_string() + b;Run

#### `type Output = String`

The resulting type after applying the `+` operator.

#### `fn add(self, other: &str) -> String`[src]

Performs the `+` operation.

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
