# テストケース：map-reduce

Rust makes it very easy to parallelize data processing, without many of the headaches traditionally associated with such an attempt.

The standard library provides great threading primitives out of the box. These, combined with Rust’s concept of Ownership and aliasing rules, automatically prevent data races.

The aliasing rules (one writable reference XOR many readable references) automatically prevent you from manipulating state that is visible to other threads. (Where synchronization is needed, there are synchronization primitives like `Mutex`es or `Channel`s.)

In this example, we will calculate the sum of all digits in a block of numbers. We will do this by parcelling out chunks of the block into different threads. Each thread will sum its tiny block of digits, and subsequently we will sum the intermediate sums produced by each thread.

Note that, although we’re passing references across thread boundaries, Rust understands that we’re only passing read-only references, and that thus no unsafety or data races can occur. Also because the references we’re passing have `'static` lifetimes, Rust understands that our data won’t be destroyed while these threads are still running. (When you need to share non-`static` data between threads, you can use a smart pointer like `Arc` to keep the data alive and avoid non-`static` lifetimes.)

    use std::thread;

    // この関数は`main`スレッドで実行されます。
    fn main() {

        // This is our data to process.
        // We will calculate the sum of all digits via a threaded map-reduce algorithm.
        // Each whitespace separated chunk will be handled in a different thread.
        //
        // TODO: see what happens to the output if you insert spaces!

### Assignments

It is not wise to let our number of threads depend on user inputted data. What if the user decides to insert a lot of spaces? Do we really want to spawn 2,000 threads? Modify the program so that the data is always chunked into a limited number of chunks, defined by a static constant at the beginning of the program.
