// plain
In Rust, a pointer to an array element is created using the &
operator. For example, to create a pointer to the first element of an array arr
, the syntax would be &arr[0]
. This pointer can then be used to access the element, or to pass it to a function. Additionally, the std::slice::from_raw_parts
function can be used to create a slice from a pointer to an array element. This function takes a pointer and a length as arguments, and returns a slice of the array starting from the pointer. For example, std::slice::from_raw_parts(&arr[0], arr.len())
would create a slice of the entire array.
