32/// A generalization of `Clone` to borrowed data.
33///
34/// Some types make it possible to go from borrowed to owned, usually by
35/// implementing the `Clone` trait. But `Clone` works only for going from `&T`
36/// to `T`. The `ToOwned` trait generalizes `Clone` to construct owned data
37/// from any borrow of a given type.

99/// A clone-on-write smart pointer.
100///
101/// The type `Cow` is a smart pointer providing clone-on-write functionality: it
102/// can enclose and provide immutable access to borrowed data, and clone the
103/// data lazily when mutation or ownership is required. The type is designed to
104/// work with general borrowed data via the `Borrow` trait.
105///
106/// `Cow` implements `Deref`, which means that you can call
107/// non-mutating methods directly on the data it encloses. If mutation
108/// is desired, `to_mut` will obtain a mutable reference to an owned
109/// value, cloning if necessary.
110///
111/// If you need reference-counting pointers, note that
112/// [`Rc::make_mut`][crate::rc::Rc::make_mut] and
113/// [`Arc::make_mut`][crate::sync::Arc::make_mut] can provide clone-on-write
114/// functionality as well.
115///
116/// # Examples
117///
118/// ```
119/// use std::borrow::Cow;
120///
121/// fn abs_all(input: &mut Cow<'_, [i32]>) {
122/// for i in 0..input.len() {
123/// let v = input[i];
124/// if v < 0 {
125/// // Clones into a vector if not already owned.
126/// input.to_mut()[i] = -v;
127/// }
128/// }
129/// }
130///
131/// // No clone occurs because `input` doesn't need to be mutated.
132/// let slice = [0, 1, 2];
133/// let mut input = Cow::from(&slice[..]);
134/// abs_all(&mut input);
135///
136/// // Clone occurs because `input` needs to be mutated.
137/// let slice = [-1, 0, 1];
138/// let mut input = Cow::from(&slice[..]);
139/// abs_all(&mut input);
140///
141/// // No clone occurs because `input` is already owned.
142/// let mut input = Cow::from(vec![-1, 0, 1]);
143/// abs_all(&mut input);
144/// ```
145///
146/// Another example showing how to keep `Cow` in a struct:
147///
148/// ```
149/// use std::borrow::Cow;
150///
151/// struct Items<'a, X> where [X]: ToOwned<Owned = Vec<X>> {
152/// values: Cow<'a, [X]>,

156/// fn new(v: Cow<'a, [X]>) -> Self {
157/// Items { values: v }
158/// }
159/// }
160///
161/// // Creates a container from borrowed values of a slice
162/// let readonly = [1, 2];
163/// let borrowed = Items::new((&readonly[..]).into());
164/// match borrowed {
165/// Items { values: Cow::Borrowed(b) } => println!("borrowed {b:?}"),

170/// // Mutates the data from slice into owned vec and pushes a new value on top
171/// clone_on_write.values.to_mut().push(3);
172/// println!("clone_on_write = {:?}", clone_on_write.values);
