dead_code
The compiler provides a dead_code
lint that will warn about unused functions. An attribute can be used to disable the lint.
fn used_function() {}// `#[allow(dead_code)]` is an attribute that disables the `dead_code` lint#[allow(dead_code)]fn unused_function() {}fn noisy_unused_function() {}// FIXME ^ Add an attribute to suppress the warningfn main() {used_function();}
Note that in real programs, you should eliminate dead code. In these examples we'll allow dead code in some places because of the interactive nature of the examples.
