I'm currently reading the rust book and this variable name tripped me up.
Because it was called "input", I thought at first it might contain the line
read by read_line(). This new variable name will be more instructive to rust
beginners.
Since the "Book" already avoids jQuery in its inline script tags and playpen.js is tiny, I figured I would convert it to plain old JS as well.
Side note: This is a separate issue, but another thing I noticed in my testing is that the "⇱" character doesn't display correctly in Chrome on Windows 7. (Firefox and IE work fine; other browsers not tested)

Edit: Github didn't like the "script" tag above
Edit 2: Actually, now IE seems to render "⇱" fine for me. Odd.
I'm surprised that bitwise operators `&`, `|` and `^` are implemented for `bool` arguments, because inspection of boolean's bits is not something that should be encouraged and because `&&` -> `&` is a common typo, but if they are implemented, then their behavior should be documented.
The "unit value" is a value of the "unit type," not the "unit value type." Regardless of correctness, this straight syntax is easier to grok.
Part of #16676
Sorry if something's off here, it's my first pull request to rust!
Use result of the computation to prevent the compiler from optimising
too much. Change `_x` to `x` and therefore remove the paragraph about
the underscore.
Fixes#25855.

Explain the --bin flag in terms of the difference
between shipping binary and library code
I'm not sure if my explanation is even quite correct, but as a newbie coming from Ruby, this is my best guess. (In Rubyland, libraries always ship with the source code because there's no other form you can ship. :) )
In the discussion of returning closures, it seems like the example code got simplified, but only the later copies got fixed. The final working code has `factory` returning `|x| x + num`, but the earlier code has `|x| vec.push(x)`.
The first form seemed to have more distracting characteristics, and the code wasn't right anyway, so I changed them to all use the second form, and updated the error messages.

Doc patch for #26120. Extra words here, because "value" is repeated.
I haven't read about whether/how it should go to stable (sorry), but I think it would help newcomers.
Thanks,
