Part of #29365
explain that std::mem::drop in prelude will invoke Drop
change "prelude" -> "the prelude"; change links to reference-style
move link references to links' section
Currently most of the operator traits use trivial implementation
examples that only perform side effects. Honestly, that might not be too
bad for the sake of documentation; but anyway, here's a proposal to move
a slightly modified version of the module-level point-addition example
into the `Add` documentation, since it's more evocative of addition
semantics.
Part of #29365
wrap identifiers in backticks
minor rephrasing
fix module-level documentation to be more truthful
This branch changes the example for `Add` to no longer be a "minimum implementation that prints something to the screen".
accumulate into vector and assert, instead of printing
I'm only making this change in one place so that people can express
their preferences for this stylistic change. If/when this change is
approved I'll go ahead and translate the rest of the `std::ops`
examples.
Improve `No stdlib` and related Documentation
This renames all lang item function names to the ones used in `libstd` and `libpanic_unwind`. It also explains the `eh_unwind_resume` lang item in the `libcore` documentation, where it was missing. A third function is also needed on certain compilation targets, so this was also added to the `No stdlib` documentation.
`AsRef` is designed for conversions that are "cheap" (as per
the API docs). It is the case that retrieving the underlying
data of `std::slice::Iter` is cheap. In my opinion, there's no
ambiguity about what slice data will be returned, otherwise,
I would be more cautious about implementing `AsRef`.
Saying that "[for-loop iteration] fails because .. has no IntoIterator
impl" is more direct than saying "...no Iterator impl" because for loops
sugar into IntoIterator invocations. It just happens that the other
Range* operators implement Iterator and rely on the fact that
`IntoIterator` is implemented for `T: Iterator`.
Implement the `!` type
This implements the never type (`!`) and hides it behind the feature gate `#[feature(never_type)]`. With the feature gate off, things should build as normal (although some error messages may be different). With the gate on, `!` is usable as a type and diverging type variables (ie. types that are unconstrained by anything in the code) will default to `!` instead of `()`.

their preferences for this stylistic change. If/when this change is
approved I'll go ahead and translate the rest of the `std::ops`
examples.
fix small typos in std::convert documentation
Fix subject-verb agreement in copypasta: "`AsRef` dereference" to
"`AsRef` dereferences".
Formalize "eg" to "e.g." Italicization of common Latin abbreviations
seems to be going out of style in written English, so I left it plain.
Use an existing constant name as an example.
By reading atomics documentation I tried to use `INIT_ATOMIC_BOOL`, which I couldn't find. Turns out it was renamed to `ATOMIC_BOOL_INIT`.

The pow() method for unsigned integers produced 0 instead of trapping
overflow for certain inputs. Calls such as 2u32.pow(1024) produced 0
when they should trap an overflow. This also adds tests for the
correctly handling overflow in unsigned pow().

Add Derive not possible question to Copy
This adds a question and answer to the Q&A section of the Copy
docs. Specifically, it asks the question I asked while reading
the docs, and gives its answer.
