The syntactic differences between this Rust example and Java are pretty minimal. Types come after identifiers in Rust instead of before them, as in Java, and the namespace delimiter is `::` instead of `.`. The bits that are likely to hurt understanding pertain to memory management (borrowing, cloning, dereferencing, boxing, ref-counting, etc). Besides conflating memory-management with syntax, this could also be made more readable by writing idiomatic Rust: use type inference in your `let` statement, fix your indentation on the last line, etc.
