# Struct alloc::string::String 1.0.0[−][src]

    pub struct String { /* fields omitted */ }

A UTF-8–encoded, growable string.

The `String` type is the most common string type that has ownership over the contents of the string. It has a close relationship with its borrowed counterpart, the primitive `str`.

# Examples

You can create a `String` from a literal string with `String::from`:

    let hello = String::from("Hello, world!");

Run

You can append a `char` to a `String` with the `push` method, and append a `&str` with the `push_str` method:

    let mut hello = String::from("Hello, ");

    hello.push('w');
    hello.push_str("orld!");

Run

If you have a vector of UTF-8 bytes, you can create a `String` from it with the `from_utf8` method:

    // some bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];

    // We know these bytes are valid, so we'll use `unwrap()`.
    let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).unwrap();

    assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);

Run

# UTF-8

`String`s are always valid UTF-8. This has a few implications, the first of which is that if you need a non-UTF-8 string, consider `OsString`. It is similar, but without the UTF-8 constraint. The second implication is that you cannot index into a `String`:

ⓘ

    let s = "hello";

    println!("The first letter of s is {}", s[0]); // ERROR!!!

Run

Indexing is intended to be a constant-time operation, but UTF-8 encoding does not allow us to do this. Furthermore, it’s not clear what sort of thing the index should return: a byte, a codepoint, or a grapheme cluster. The `bytes` and `chars` methods return iterators over the first two, respectively.

# Deref

`String`s implement `Deref``<Target=str>`, and so inherit all of `str`’s methods. In addition, this means that you can pass a `String` to a function which takes a `&str` by using an ampersand (`&`):

    fn takes_str(s: &str) { }

    let s = String::from("Hello");

    takes_str(&s);

Run

This will create a `&str` from the `String` and pass it in. This conversion is very inexpensive, and so generally, functions will accept `&str`s as arguments unless they need a `String` for some specific reason.

In certain cases Rust doesn’t have enough information to make this conversion, known as `Deref` coercion. In the following example a string slice `&'a str` implements the trait `TraitExample`, and the function `example_func` takes anything that implements the trait. In this case Rust would need to make two implicit conversions, which Rust doesn’t have the means to do. For that reason, the following example will not compile.

ⓘ

    trait TraitExample {}

    impl<'a> TraitExample for &'a str {}

    fn example_func<A: TraitExample>(example_arg: A) {}

    let example_string = String::from("example_string");
    example_func(&example_string);

Run

There are two options that would work instead. The first would be to change the line `example_func(&example_string);` to `example_func(example_string.as_str());`, using the method `as_str()` to explicitly extract the string slice containing the string. The second way changes `example_func(&example_string);` to `example_func(&*example_string);`. In this case we are dereferencing a `String` to a `str`, then referencing the `str` back to `&str`. The second way is more idiomatic, however both work to do the conversion explicitly rather than relying on the implicit conversion.

# Representation

A `String` is made up of three components: a pointer to some bytes, a length, and a capacity. The pointer points to an internal buffer `String` uses to store its data. The length is the number of bytes currently stored in the buffer, and the capacity is the size of the buffer in bytes. As such, the length will always be less than or equal to the capacity.

This buffer is always stored on the heap.

You can look at these with the `as_ptr`, `len`, and `capacity` methods:

    use std::mem;

    let story = String::from("Once upon a time...");

    // Prevent automatically dropping the String's data
    let mut story = mem::ManuallyDrop::new(story);

    let ptr = story.as_mut_ptr();
    let len = story.len();
    let capacity = story.capacity();

    // story has nineteen bytes
    assert_eq!(19, len);

    // We can re-build a String out of ptr, len, and capacity. This is all
    // unsafe because we are responsible for making sure the components are
    // valid:
    let s = unsafe { String::from_raw_parts(ptr, len, capacity) } ;

    assert_eq!(String::from("Once upon a time..."), s);

Run

If a `String` has enough capacity, adding elements to it will not re-allocate. For example, consider this program:

    let mut s = String::new();

    println!("{}", s.capacity());

    for _ in 0..5 {
        s.push_str("hello");
        println!("{}", s.capacity());
    }

Run

This will output the following:

    0
    5
    10
    20
    20
    40

At first, we have no memory allocated at all, but as we append to the string, it increases its capacity appropriately. If we instead use the `with_capacity` method to allocate the correct capacity initially:

    let mut s = String::with_capacity(25);

    println!("{}", s.capacity());

    for _ in 0..5 {
        s.push_str("hello");
        println!("{}", s.capacity());
    }

Run

We end up with a different output:

    25
    25
    25
    25
    25
    25

Here, there’s no need to allocate more memory inside the loop.

## Implementations

### `impl String`[src]

#### `pub const fn new() -> String` 1.0.0 (const: 1.39.0)[src]

Creates a new empty `String`.

Given that the `String` is empty, this will not allocate any initial buffer. While that means that this initial operation is very inexpensive, it may cause excessive allocation later when you add data. If you have an idea of how much data the `String` will hold, consider the `with_capacity` method to prevent excessive re-allocation.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = String::new();

Run

#### `pub fn with_capacity(capacity: usize) -> String`[src]

Creates a new empty `String` with a particular capacity.

`String`s have an internal buffer to hold their data. The capacity is the length of that buffer, and can be queried with the `capacity` method. This method creates an empty `String`, but one with an initial buffer that can hold `capacity` bytes. This is useful when you may be appending a bunch of data to the `String`, reducing the number of reallocations it needs to do.

If the given capacity is `0`, no allocation will occur, and this method is identical to the `new` method.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::with_capacity(10);

    // The String contains no chars, even though it has capacity for more
    assert_eq!(s.len(), 0);

    // These are all done without reallocating...
    let cap = s.capacity();
    for _ in 0..10 {
        s.push('a');
    }

    assert_eq!(s.capacity(), cap);

    // ...but this may make the string reallocate
    s.push('a');

Run

#### `pub fn from_utf8(vec: Vec<u8>) -> Result<String, FromUtf8Error>`[src]

Converts a vector of bytes to a `String`.

A string (`String`) is made of bytes (`u8`), and a vector of bytes (`Vec<u8>`) is made of bytes, so this function converts between the two. Not all byte slices are valid `String`s, however: `String` requires that it is valid UTF-8. `from_utf8()` checks to ensure that the bytes are valid UTF-8, and then does the conversion.

If you are sure that the byte slice is valid UTF-8, and you don’t want to incur the overhead of the validity check, there is an unsafe version of this function, `from_utf8_unchecked`, which has the same behavior but skips the check.

This method will take care to not copy the vector, for efficiency’s sake.

If you need a `&str` instead of a `String`, consider `str::from_utf8`.

The inverse of this method is `into_bytes`.

# Errors

Returns `Err` if the slice is not UTF-8 with a description as to why the provided bytes are not UTF-8. The vector you moved in is also included.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // some bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];

    // We know these bytes are valid, so we'll use `unwrap()`.
    let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).unwrap();

    assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);

Run

Incorrect bytes:

    // some invalid bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![0, 159, 146, 150];

    assert!(String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).is_err());

Run

See the docs for `FromUtf8Error` for more details on what you can do with this error.

#### `pub fn from_utf8_lossy(v: &[u8]) -> Cow<'_, str>`[src]

Converts a slice of bytes to a string, including invalid characters.

Strings are made of bytes (`u8`), and a slice of bytes (`&[u8]`) is made of bytes, so this function converts between the two. Not all byte slices are valid strings, however: strings are required to be valid UTF-8. During this conversion, `from_utf8_lossy()` will replace any invalid UTF-8 sequences with `U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER`, which looks like this: �

If you are sure that the byte slice is valid UTF-8, and you don’t want to incur the overhead of the conversion, there is an unsafe version of this function, `from_utf8_unchecked`, which has the same behavior but skips the checks.

This function returns a `Cow<'a, str>`. If our byte slice is invalid UTF-8, then we need to insert the replacement characters, which will change the size of the string, and hence, require a `String`. But if it’s already valid UTF-8, we don’t need a new allocation. This return type allows us to handle both cases.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // some bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];

    let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8_lossy(&sparkle_heart);

    assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);

Run

Incorrect bytes:

    // some invalid bytes
    let input = b"Hello \xF0\x90\x80World";
    let output = String::from_utf8_lossy(input);

    assert_eq!("Hello �World", output);

Run

#### `pub fn from_utf16(v: &[u16]) -> Result<String, FromUtf16Error>`[src]

Decode a UTF-16–encoded vector `v` into a `String`, returning `Err` if `v` contains any invalid data.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // 𝄞music
    let v = &[0xD834, 0xDD1E, 0x006d, 0x0075,
              0x0073, 0x0069, 0x0063];
    assert_eq!(String::from("𝄞music"),
               String::from_utf16(v).unwrap());

    // 𝄞mu<invalid>ic
    let v = &[0xD834, 0xDD1E, 0x006d, 0x0075,
              0xD800, 0x0069, 0x0063];
    assert!(String::from_utf16(v).is_err());

Run

#### `pub fn from_utf16_lossy(v: &[u16]) -> String`[src]

Decode a UTF-16–encoded slice `v` into a `String`, replacing invalid data with the replacement character (`U+FFFD`).

Unlike `from_utf8_lossy` which returns a `Cow<'a, str>`, `from_utf16_lossy` returns a `String` since the UTF-16 to UTF-8 conversion requires a memory allocation.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // 𝄞mus<invalid>ic<invalid>
    let v = &[0xD834, 0xDD1E, 0x006d, 0x0075,
              0x0073, 0xDD1E, 0x0069, 0x0063,
              0xD834];

    assert_eq!(String::from("𝄞mus\u{FFFD}ic\u{FFFD}"),
               String::from_utf16_lossy(v));

Run

#### `pub fn into_raw_parts(self) -> (*mut u8, usize, usize)`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`vec_into_raw_parts` #65816)

new API

Decomposes a `String` into its raw components.

Returns the raw pointer to the underlying data, the length of the string (in bytes), and the allocated capacity of the data (in bytes). These are the same arguments in the same order as the arguments to `from_raw_parts`.

After calling this function, the caller is responsible for the memory previously managed by the `String`. The only way to do this is to convert the raw pointer, length, and capacity back into a `String` with the `from_raw_parts` function, allowing the destructor to perform the cleanup.

# Examples

    #![feature(vec_into_raw_parts)]
    let s = String::from("hello");

    let (ptr, len, cap) = s.into_raw_parts();

    let rebuilt = unsafe { String::from_raw_parts(ptr, len, cap) };
    assert_eq!(rebuilt, "hello");

Run

#### `pub unsafe fn from_raw_parts(
buf: *mut u8,
length: usize,
capacity: usize
) -> String`[src]

Creates a new `String` from a length, capacity, and pointer.

# Safety

This is highly unsafe, due to the number of invariants that aren’t checked:

- The memory at `buf` needs to have been previously allocated by the same allocator the standard library uses, with a required alignment of exactly 1.
- `length` needs to be less than or equal to `capacity`.
- `capacity` needs to be the correct value.
- The first `length` bytes at `buf` need to be valid UTF-8.

Violating these may cause problems like corrupting the allocator’s internal data structures.

The ownership of `buf` is effectively transferred to the `String` which may then deallocate, reallocate or change the contents of memory pointed to by the pointer at will. Ensure that nothing else uses the pointer after calling this function.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    use std::mem;

    unsafe {
        let s = String::from("hello");

        // Prevent automatically dropping the String's data
        let mut s = mem::ManuallyDrop::new(s);

        let ptr = s.as_mut_ptr();
        let len = s.len();
        let capacity = s.capacity();

        let s = String::from_raw_parts(ptr, len, capacity);

        assert_eq!(String::from("hello"), s);
    }

Run

#### `pub unsafe fn from_utf8_unchecked(bytes: Vec<u8>) -> String`[src]

Converts a vector of bytes to a `String` without checking that the string contains valid UTF-8.

See the safe version, `from_utf8`, for more details.

# Safety

This function is unsafe because it does not check that the bytes passed to it are valid UTF-8. If this constraint is violated, it may cause memory unsafety issues with future users of the `String`, as the rest of the standard library assumes that `String`s are valid UTF-8.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    // some bytes, in a vector
    let sparkle_heart = vec![240, 159, 146, 150];

    let sparkle_heart = unsafe {
        String::from_utf8_unchecked(sparkle_heart)
    };

    assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);

Run

#### `pub fn into_bytes(self) -> Vec<u8>`[src]

Converts a `String` into a byte vector.

This consumes the `String`, so we do not need to copy its contents.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = String::from("hello");
    let bytes = s.into_bytes();

    assert_eq!(&[104, 101, 108, 108, 111][..], &bytes[..]);

Run

#### `pub fn as_str(&self) -> &str` 1.7.0[src]

Extracts a string slice containing the entire `String`.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = String::from("foo");

    assert_eq!("foo", s.as_str());

Run

#### `pub fn as_mut_str(&mut self) -> &mut str` 1.7.0[src]

Converts a `String` into a mutable string slice.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("foobar");
    let s_mut_str = s.as_mut_str();

    s_mut_str.make_ascii_uppercase();

    assert_eq!("FOOBAR", s_mut_str);

Run

#### `pub fn push_str(&mut self, string: &str)`[src]

Appends a given string slice onto the end of this `String`.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("foo");

    s.push_str("bar");

    assert_eq!("foobar", s);

Run

#### `pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize`[src]

Returns this `String`’s capacity, in bytes.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = String::with_capacity(10);

    assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);

Run

#### `pub fn reserve(&mut self, additional: usize)`[src]

Ensures that this `String`’s capacity is at least `additional` bytes larger than its length.

The capacity may be increased by more than `additional` bytes if it chooses, to prevent frequent reallocations.

If you do not want this “at least” behavior, see the `reserve_exact` method.

# Panics

Panics if the new capacity overflows `usize`.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::new();

    s.reserve(10);

    assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);

Run

This may not actually increase the capacity:

    let mut s = String::with_capacity(10);
    s.push('a');
    s.push('b');

    // s now has a length of 2 and a capacity of 10
    assert_eq!(2, s.len());
    assert_eq!(10, s.capacity());

    // Since we already have an extra 8 capacity, calling this...
    s.reserve(8);

    // ... doesn't actually increase.
    assert_eq!(10, s.capacity());

Run

#### `pub fn reserve_exact(&mut self, additional: usize)`[src]

Ensures that this `String`’s capacity is `additional` bytes larger than its length.

Consider using the `reserve` method unless you absolutely know better than the allocator.

# Panics

Panics if the new capacity overflows `usize`.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::new();

    s.reserve_exact(10);

    assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);

Run

This may not actually increase the capacity:

    let mut s = String::with_capacity(10);
    s.push('a');
    s.push('b');

    // s now has a length of 2 and a capacity of 10
    assert_eq!(2, s.len());
    assert_eq!(10, s.capacity());

    // Since we already have an extra 8 capacity, calling this...
    s.reserve_exact(8);

    // ... doesn't actually increase.
    assert_eq!(10, s.capacity());

Run

#### `pub fn try_reserve(&mut self, additional: usize) -> Result<(), TryReserveError>`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`try_reserve` #48043)

new API

Tries to reserve capacity for at least `additional` more elements to be inserted in the given `String`. The collection may reserve more space to avoid frequent reallocations. After calling `reserve`, capacity will be greater than or equal to `self.len() + additional`. Does nothing if capacity is already sufficient.

# Errors

If the capacity overflows, or the allocator reports a failure, then an error is returned.

# Examples

    #![feature(try_reserve)]
    use std::collections::TryReserveError;

    fn process_data(data: &str) -> Result<String, TryReserveError> {
        let mut output = String::new();

        // Pre-reserve the memory, exiting if we can't
        output.try_reserve(data.len())?;

        // Now we know this can't OOM in the middle of our complex work
        output.push_str(data);

        Ok(output)
    }

Run

#### `pub fn try_reserve_exact(
&mut self,
additional: usize
) -> Result<(), TryReserveError>`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`try_reserve` #48043)

new API

Tries to reserve the minimum capacity for exactly `additional` more elements to be inserted in the given `String`. After calling `reserve_exact`, capacity will be greater than or equal to `self.len() + additional`. Does nothing if the capacity is already sufficient.

Note that the allocator may give the collection more space than it requests. Therefore, capacity can not be relied upon to be precisely minimal. Prefer `reserve` if future insertions are expected.

# Errors

If the capacity overflows, or the allocator reports a failure, then an error is returned.

# Examples

    #![feature(try_reserve)]
    use std::collections::TryReserveError;

    fn process_data(data: &str) -> Result<String, TryReserveError> {
        let mut output = String::new();

        // Pre-reserve the memory, exiting if we can't
        output.try_reserve(data.len())?;

Run

#### `pub fn shrink_to_fit(&mut self)`[src]

Shrinks the capacity of this `String` to match its length.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("foo");

    s.reserve(100);
    assert!(s.capacity() >= 100);

    s.shrink_to_fit();
    assert_eq!(3, s.capacity());

Run

#### `pub fn shrink_to(&mut self, min_capacity: usize)`[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`shrink_to` #56431)

new API

Shrinks the capacity of this `String` with a lower bound.

The capacity will remain at least as large as both the length and the supplied value.

If the current capacity is less than the lower limit, this is a no-op.

# Examples

    #![feature(shrink_to)]
    let mut s = String::from("foo");

    s.reserve(100);
    assert!(s.capacity() >= 100);

    s.shrink_to(10);
    assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);
    s.shrink_to(0);
    assert!(s.capacity() >= 3);

Run

#### `pub fn push(&mut self, ch: char)`[src]

Appends the given `char` to the end of this `String`.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("abc");

    s.push('1');
    s.push('2');
    s.push('3');

    assert_eq!("abc123", s);

Run

#### `pub fn as_bytes(&self) -> &[u8]`[src]

Returns a byte slice of this `String`’s contents.

The inverse of this method is `from_utf8`.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let s = String::from("hello");

    assert_eq!(&[104, 101, 108, 108, 111], s.as_bytes());

Run

#### `pub fn truncate(&mut self, new_len: usize)`[src]

Shortens this `String` to the specified length.

If `new_len` is greater than the string’s current length, this has no effect.

Note that this method has no effect on the allocated capacity of the string

# Panics

Panics if `new_len` does not lie on a `char` boundary.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("hello");

    s.truncate(2);

    assert_eq!("he", s);

Run

#### `pub fn pop(&mut self) -> Option<char>`[src]

Removes the last character from the string buffer and returns it.

Returns `None` if this `String` is empty.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("foo");

    assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('o'));
    assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('o'));
    assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('f'));

    assert_eq!(s.pop(), None);

Run

#### `pub fn remove(&mut self, idx: usize) -> char`[src]

Removes a `char` from this `String` at a byte position and returns it.

This is an O(n) operation, as it requires copying every element in the buffer.

# Panics

Panics if `idx` is larger than or equal to the `String`’s length, or if it does not lie on a `char` boundary.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("foo");

    assert_eq!(s.remove(0), 'f');
    assert_eq!(s.remove(1), 'o');
    assert_eq!(s.remove(0), 'o');

Run

#### `pub fn remove_matches<'a, P>(&'a mut self, pat: P) where
P: for<'x> Pattern<'x>,` [src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`string_remove_matches` #72826)

new API

Remove all matches of pattern `pat` in the `String`.

# Examples

    #![feature(string_remove_matches)]
    let mut s = String::from("Trees are not green, the sky is not blue.");
    s.remove_matches("not ");
    assert_eq!("Trees are green, the sky is blue.", s);

Run

Matches will be detected and removed iteratively, so in cases where patterns overlap, only the first pattern will be removed:

    #![feature(string_remove_matches)]
    let mut s = String::from("banana");
    s.remove_matches("ana");
    assert_eq!("bna", s);

Run

#### `pub fn retain<F>(&mut self, f: F) where
F: FnMut(char) -> bool,` 1.26.0[src]

Retains only the characters specified by the predicate.

In other words, remove all characters `c` such that `f(c)` returns `false`. This method operates in place, visiting each character exactly once in the original order, and preserves the order of the retained characters.

# Examples

    let mut s = String::from("f_o_ob_ar");

    s.retain(|c| c != '_');

    assert_eq!(s, "foobar");

Run

The exact order may be useful for tracking external state, like an index.

    let mut s = String::from("abcde");
    let keep = [false, true, true, false, true];
    let mut i = 0;
    s.retain(|_| (keep[i], i += 1).0);
    assert_eq!(s, "bce");

Run

#### `pub fn insert(&mut self, idx: usize, ch: char)`[src]

Inserts a character into this `String` at a byte position.

This is an O(n) operation as it requires copying every element in the buffer.

# Panics

Panics if `idx` is larger than the `String`’s length, or if it does not lie on a `char` boundary.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::with_capacity(3);

    s.insert(0, 'f');
    s.insert(1, 'o');
    s.insert(2, 'o');

    assert_eq!("foo", s);

Run

#### `pub fn insert_str(&mut self, idx: usize, string: &str)`1.16.0[src]

Inserts a string slice into this `String` at a byte position.

This is an O(n) operation as it requires copying every element in the buffer.

# Panics

Panics if `idx` is larger than the `String`’s length, or if it does not lie on a `char` boundary.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("bar");

    s.insert_str(0, "foo");

    assert_eq!("foobar", s);

Run

#### `pub unsafe fn as_mut_vec(&mut self) -> &mut Vec<u8>`[src]

Returns a mutable reference to the contents of this `String`.

# Safety

This function is unsafe because it does not check that the bytes passed to it are valid UTF-8. If this constraint is violated, it may cause memory unsafety issues with future users of the `String`, as the rest of the standard library assumes that `String`s are valid UTF-8.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("hello");

    unsafe {
        let vec = s.as_mut_vec();
        assert_eq!(&[104, 101, 108, 108, 111][..], &vec[..]);

        vec.reverse();
    }
    assert_eq!(s, "olleh");

Run

#### `pub fn len(&self) -> usize`[src]

Returns the length of this `String`, in bytes, not `char`s or graphemes. In other words, it may not be what a human considers the length of the string.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let a = String::from("foo");
    assert_eq!(a.len(), 3);

    let fancy_f = String::from("ƒoo");
    assert_eq!(fancy_f.len(), 4);
    assert_eq!(fancy_f.chars().count(), 3);

Run

#### `pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool`[src]

Returns `true` if this `String` has a length of zero, and `false` otherwise.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut v = String::new();
    assert!(v.is_empty());

    v.push('a');
    assert!(!v.is_empty());

Run

#### `#[must_use = "use `.truncate()` if you don't need the other half"]pub fn split_off(&mut self, at: usize) -> String` 1.16.0[src]

Splits the string into two at the given byte index.

Returns a newly allocated `String`. `self` contains bytes `[0, at)`, and the returned `String` contains bytes `[at, len)`. `at` must be on the boundary of a UTF-8 code point.

Note that the capacity of `self` does not change.

# Panics

Panics if `at` is not on a `UTF-8` code point boundary, or if it is beyond the last code point of the string.

# Examples

    let mut hello = String::from("Hello, World!");
    let world = hello.split_off(7);
    assert_eq!(hello, "Hello, ");
    assert_eq!(world, "World!");

Run

#### `pub fn clear(&mut self)`[src]

Truncates this `String`, removing all contents.

While this means the `String` will have a length of zero, it does not touch its capacity.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("foo");

    s.clear();

    assert!(s.is_empty());
    assert_eq!(0, s.len());
    assert_eq!(3, s.capacity());

Run

#### `pub fn drain<R>(&mut self, range: R) -> Drain<'_>ⓘ

### Notable traits for Drain<'_>

`impl Iterator for Drain<'_> type Item = char;`
where
R: RangeBounds<usize>,` 1.6.0[src]

Creates a draining iterator that removes the specified range in the `String` and yields the removed `chars`.

Note: The element range is removed even if the iterator is not consumed until the end.

# Panics

Panics if the starting point or end point do not lie on a `char` boundary, or if they’re out of bounds.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("α is alpha, β is beta");
    let beta_offset = s.find('β').unwrap_or(s.len());

    // Remove the range up until the β from the string
    let t: String = s.drain(..beta_offset).collect();
    assert_eq!(t, "α is alpha, ");
    assert_eq!(s, "β is beta");

    // A full range clears the string
    s.drain(..);
    assert_eq!(s, "");

Run

#### `pub fn replace_range<R>(&mut self, range: R, replace_with: &str) where
R: RangeBounds<usize>,` 1.27.0[src]

Removes the specified range in the string, and replaces it with the given string. The given string doesn’t need to be the same length as the range.

# Panics

Panics if the starting point or end point do not lie on a `char` boundary, or if they’re out of bounds.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    let mut s = String::from("α is alpha, β is beta");
    let beta_offset = s.find('β').unwrap_or(s.len());

    // Replace the range up until the β from the string
    s.replace_range(..beta_offset, "Α is capital alpha; ");
    assert_eq!(s, "Α is capital alpha; β is beta");

Run

#### `pub fn into_boxed_str(self) -> Box<str>ⓘ

### Notable traits for Box<I, A>

`impl<I: Iterator + ?Sized, A: Allocator> Iterator for Box<I, A> type Item = I::Item;impl<F: ?Sized + Future + Unpin, A: Allocator> Future for Box<F, A> where

This will drop any excess capacity.

# Examples

Basic usage:

## Trait Implementations

### `impl Add<&'_ str> for String`[src]

Implements the `+` operator for concatenating two strings.

This consumes the `String` on the left-hand side and re-uses its buffer (growing it if necessary). This is done to avoid allocating a new `String` and copying the entire contents on every operation, which would lead to O(n^2) running time when building an n-byte string by repeated concatenation.

The string on the right-hand side is only borrowed; its contents are copied into the returned `String`.

# Examples

Concatenating two `String`s takes the first by value and borrows the second:

    let a = String::from("hello");
    let b = String::from(" world");
    let c = a + &b;
    // `a` is moved and can no longer be used here.

Run

If you want to keep using the first `String`, you can clone it and append to the clone instead:

    let a = String::from("hello");
    let b = String::from(" world");
    let c = a.clone() + &b;
    // `a` is still valid here.

Run

Concatenating `&str` slices can be done by converting the first to a `String`:

    let a = "hello";
    let b = " world";
    let c = a.to_string() + b;
