Parsing Arguments and Writing Logic

Parsing Arguments and Writing Logic in Rust

We are up to Day 37, and today, we are continuing to build out our Rust CLI app. Last time, we set up a simple command-line tool using the clap crate. Now, it is time to dig a little deeper into parsing arguments, handling input validation, and structuring our logic cleanly.

If you are coming from the C# world, this is where you would probably set up your Program.cs to parse args[], maybe use a library like CommandLineParser, and then branch out into your application logic. Rust gives you similar tools but with its own flavor.
