3/// Extend a collection with the contents of an iterator.
4///
5/// Iterators produce a series of values, and collections can also be thought
6/// of as a series of values. The `Extend` trait bridges this gap, allowing you
7/// to extend a collection by including the contents of that iterator. When
8/// extending a collection with an already existing key, that entry is updated
9/// or, in the case of collections that permit multiple entries with equal
10/// keys, that entry is inserted.
11///
12/// # Examples
13///
14/// Basic usage:
15///
16/// ```
17/// // You can extend a String with some chars:
18/// let mut message = String::from("The first three letters are: ");
19///
20/// message.extend(&['a', 'b', 'c']);
21///
22/// assert_eq!("abc", &message[29..32]);
23/// ```
24///
25/// Implementing `Extend`:
26///
27/// ```
28/// // A sample collection, that's just a wrapper over Vec<T>
29/// #[derive(Debug)]
30/// struct MyCollection(Vec<i32>);
31///
32/// // Let's give it some methods so we can create one and add things
33/// // to it.
34/// impl MyCollection {
35/// fn new() -> MyCollection {
36/// MyCollection(Vec::new())
37/// }
38///
39/// fn add(&mut self, elem: i32) {
40/// self.0.push(elem);
41/// }
42/// }
43///
44/// // since MyCollection has a list of i32s, we implement Extend for i32
45/// impl Extend<i32> for MyCollection {
46///
47/// // This is a bit simpler with the concrete type signature: we can call
48/// // extend on anything which can be turned into an Iterator which gives
49/// // us i32s. Because we need i32s to put into MyCollection.
50/// fn extend<T: IntoIterator<Item=i32>>(&mut self, iter: T) {
51///
52/// // The implementation is very straightforward: loop through the
53/// // iterator, and add() each element to ourselves.
54/// for elem in iter {
55/// self.add(elem);
56/// }
57/// }
58/// }
59///
60/// let mut c = MyCollection::new();
61///
62/// c.add(5);
63/// c.add(6);
64/// c.add(7);
65///
66/// // let's extend our collection with three more numbers
67/// c.extend(vec![1, 2, 3]);
68///
69/// // we've added these elements onto the end
70/// assert_eq!("MyCollection([5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3])", format!("{c:?}"));
71/// ```
