Not exactly the same thing but this is still pretty funny. This is code that is technically 100% legal Rust but you should definitely never write such code π .
What madness caused this
It's a test for the compiler which ensures that these legal yet extremely weird expressions continue to compile as the compiler is updated. So there is a purpose to the madness but it does still look pretty funny.
Thatβs make sense. We used to write some ridiculous tests too, but users still managed to find a way
Is my favorite.
