Understand it, then run it

Run it now

// This program demonstrates that Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024) can compile
// and run a simple binary. The tooling updates mentioned in the source
// (e.g., cargo‑efmt, afrim, SeaORM 2.0) are not part of the standard
// library and therefore do not affect this example.

fn main() {
    // Print a greeting to show the program executed successfully.
    println!("Hello, Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024)!");
}

What it printed when we ran it on Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024)

Hello, Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024)!

Run sends this program (for Solidity, the contract and its tests) to our own sandbox, where it is compiled and run once, with no network, and what it printed or the test report comes back here. Nothing is kept. Runs are counted per visitor for the day so everyone gets a turn; the details are on the legal page.
