# Function std::io::repeat 1.0.0 [−] [src]

    pub fn repeat(byte: u8) -> Repeat

Creates an instance of a reader that infinitely repeats one byte.

All reads from this reader will succeed by filling the specified buffer with the given byte.

# Examples

fn main() { use std::io::{self, Read}; let mut buffer = [0; 3]; io::repeat(0b101).read_exact(&mut buffer).unwrap(); assert_eq!(buffer, [0b101, 0b101, 0b101]); }

    use std::io::{self, Read};

    let mut buffer = [0; 3];
    io::repeat(0b101).read_exact(&mut buffer).unwrap();
    assert_eq!(buffer, [0b101, 0b101, 0b101]);

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
