      It wouldn’t be as relevant, since passing a function or method instead of a closure is much easier in Rust - you can just name it, while Ruby requires you to use the method method.

      So instead of .map(|res| res.unwrap()) you can do .map(Result::unwrap) and it’ll Just Work™.

          Well, that’s to be expected - the implementation of map expects a function that takes ownership of its inputs, so you get a type mismatch.

          If you really want to golf things, you can tack your own map_ref (and friends) onto the Iterator trait. It’s not very useful - the output can’t reference the input - but it’s possible!

          I imagine you could possibly extend this to a combinator that returns a tuple of (Input, ref_map'd output) to get around that limitation, although I can’t think of any cases where that would actually be useful.
