Are lines flushed or copied?

I am learning about Rust property. My tests show that string literals are copied when assigning variables and instances are String

moved around. Does this mean that String

- Drop

whereas string literals Copy

?

variable_assign_test.rs

// variable assign test,

// assign variable on stack to another,
fn test_stack_assign() {
    let x = 5;
    let y = x; // data duplicated on stack,
    println!("x = {}, y = {}", x, y); // it ok,
}

// assign variable on heap to another,
fn test_heap_assign() {
    let s1 = String::from("hello");
    let s2 = s1;    // now s1 is invalid, should not use it any more,
    // println!("{}", s1); // this won't compile,
    println!("s2 = {}", s2); // it ok,
}

fn test_tuple_assign() {
    let pa = (1, 2);
    let pb = pa;
    println!("pa = {:?}, pb = {:?}", pa, pb); // it ok,

    // tuple that contains string literal,
    let name_monica = "monica";
    let monica = (11, name_monica);
    let monica2 = monica;
    println!("monica = {:?}, monica2 = {:?}", monica, monica2);

    // tuple that contains String instance,
    let name_eric = String::from("eric");
    let eric = (12, name_eric);
    let eric2 = eric; // eric is invalid now,
    // println!("eric = {:?}, eric = {:?}", eric, eric2); // this won't compile,
}

fn main() {
    test_stack_assign();
    test_heap_assign();
    test_tuple_assign();
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

Compile with rustc variable_assign_test.rs -o a.out

and run with./a.out

If the last line is test_tuple_assign()

uncommented, it will get an error value used here after move

for the variable eric
