The comment applies word for word to C++ as well. Linked lists are just bad datastructures for modern CPUs.
I don’t use rust so I can’t speak to the quality of the std lib, but I don’t think its fair to use the parent comment as evidence either way.
- blub 7y agoNo, it doesn't apply to C++ because the corners of the language required to write lists and trees are exercised enough and don't suffer from unexpected limitations.
- jdsully 7y agoThe comment originating this discussion provides no evidence in any direction on the quality of the rust standard library. Merely that you wouldn't use these in practice, nor would you in C++.
