The use declaration can be used so manual scoping isn't needed:
// An attribute to hide warnings for unused code.
#![allow(dead_code)]
enum Status {
Rich,
Poor,
}
enum Work {
Civilian,
Soldier,
}
fn main() {
// Explicitly `use` each name so they are available without
// manual scoping.
use crate::Status::{Poor, Rich};
// Automatically `use` each name inside `Work`.
use crate::Work::*;
// Equivalent to `Status::Poor`.
let status = Poor;
// Equivalent to `Work::Civilian`.
let work = Civilian;
match status {
// Note the lack of scoping because of the explicit `use` above.
Rich => println!("The rich have lots of money!"),
Poor => println!("The poor have no money..."),
}
match work {
// Note again the lack of scoping.
Civilian => println!("Civilians work!"),
Soldier => println!("Soldiers fight!"),
}
}

Testcase: linked-list
A common use for enums is to create a linked-list:
use crate::List::*;
enum List {
// Cons: Tuple struct that wraps an element and a pointer to the next node
Cons(u32, Box),
// Nil: A node that signifies the end of the linked list
Nil,
}
// Methods can be attached to an enum
impl List {
// Create an empty list
fn new() -> List {
// `Nil` has type `List`
Nil
}
// Consume a list, and return the same list with a new element at its front
fn prepend(self, elem: u32) -> List {
// `Cons` also has type List
Cons(elem, Box::new(self))
}
// Return the length of the list
fn len(&self) -> u32 {
// `self` has to be matched, because the behavior of this method
// depends on the variant of `self`
// `self` has type `&List`, and `*self` has type `List`, matching on a
// concrete type `T` is preferred over a match on a reference `&T`
match *self {
// Can't take ownership of the tail, because `self` is borrowed;
// instead take a reference to the tail
Cons(_, ref tail) => 1 + tail.len(),
// Base Case: An empty list has zero length
Nil => 0
}
}
// Return representation of the list as a (heap allocated) string
fn stringify(&self) -> String {
match *self {
Cons(head, ref tail) => {
// `format!` is similar to `print!`, but returns a heap
// allocated string instead of printing to the console
format!("{}, {}", head, tail.stringify())
},
Nil => {
format!("Nil")
},
}
}
}
fn main() {
// Create an empty linked list
let mut list = List::new();
// Prepend some elements
list = list.prepend(1);
list = list.prepend(2);
list = list.prepend(3);
// Show the final state of the list
println!("linked list has length: {}", list.len());
println!("{}", list.stringify());
}

constants
Rust has two different types of constants which can be declared in any scope including global. Both require explicit type annotation:
• const: An unchangeable value (the common case).
