//! Traits for conversions between types.
//!
//! The traits in this module provide a general way to talk about conversions from one type to
//! another. They follow the standard Rust conventions of `as`/`into`/`from`.
//!
//! Like many traits, these are often used as bounds for generic functions, to support arguments of
//! multiple types.
//!
//! See each trait for usage examples.

/// A cheap, reference-to-reference conversion.
///
/// `AsRef` is very similar to, but different than, `Borrow`. See
/// [the book][book] for more.
///
/// [book]: ../../book/borrow-and-asref.html
///
/// # Examples
///
/// Both `String` and `&str` implement `AsRef<str>`:
///
/// ```
/// fn is_hello<T: AsRef<str>>(s: T) {
///    assert_eq!("hello", s.as_ref());
/// }
///
/// let s = "hello";
/// is_hello(s);
///
/// let s = "hello".to_string();
/// is_hello(s);
/// ```

}

/// A conversion that consumes `self`, which may or may not be expensive.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// `String` implements `Into<Vec<u8>>`:
///
/// ```
/// fn is_hello<T: Into<Vec<u8>>>(s: T) {
///    let bytes = b"hello".to_vec();
///    assert_eq!(bytes, s.into());
/// }
///
/// let s = "hello".to_string();
/// is_hello(s);
/// ```

    /// Performs the conversion.
    #[stable(feature = "rust1", since = "1.0.0")]
    fn into(self) -> T;
}

/// Construct `Self` via a conversion.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// `String` implements `From<&str>`:
///
/// ```
/// let string = "hello".to_string();
/// let other_string = String::from("hello");
///
/// assert_eq!(string, other_string);
/// ```
