# Snowflakes
This project is part of my boredum in quarantine, so I have to learn something new (Rust language) and then implement it with something fun!
Ikr, _nothing fancy_ here. My first attempt with Rust tho.
## How to
**build**
```
cargo build --release
```
**run**
```
cargo run --release
```
_Considering to use release mode._
### Notes
If somebody or myself in the future wondering why I wrote this code:
```rust
pub struct Snowflakes {
capacity: usize,
radius: Vec,
velocity: Vec,
x: Vec,
y: Vec,
}
pub struct Snowflake {
pub id: usize,
pub radius: f64,
pub velocity: f64,
pub x: f64,
pub y: f64,
}
```
here is my explanation, first the struct `Snowflakes` is implement the SoA pattern. I'm not sure if it will perform well on heap allocation (those vectors). I want to use something like [FixedSizeArray](https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/core/array/trait.FixedSizeArray.html) in the future if it's finally arrive as the stable features.
Lastly, the struct `Snowflake` is just a template for me to manipulate the data that I got from `Snowflakes` to more specific.
