Join iterator of &str

by

You could use the itertools crate for that. I use the intersperse helper in the example, it is pretty much the join equivalent for iterators.

cloned() is needed to convert &&str items to &str items, it is not doing any allocations. It can be eventually replaced by copied() when [email protected] gets a stable release.

use itertools::Itertools; // 0.8.0

fn main() {
    let words = ["alpha", "beta", "gamma"];
    let merged: String = words.iter().cloned().intersperse(", ").collect();
    assert_eq!(merged, "alpha, beta, gamma");
}
