% Deref Alright! We've got a decent minimal ArrayStack implemented. We can push, we can pop, and we can clean up after ourselves. However there's a whole mess of functionality we'd reasonably want. In particular, we have a proper array, but none of the slice functionality. That's actually pretty easy to solve: we can implement `Deref`. This will magically make our Vec coerce to and behave like a slice in all sorts of conditions. All we need is `slice::from_raw_parts`. ```rust,ignore use std::ops::Deref; impl Deref for Vec { type Target = [T]; fn deref(&self) -> &[T] { unsafe { ::std::slice::from_raw_parts(*self.ptr, self.len) } } } ``` And let's do DerefMut too: ```rust,ignore use std::ops::DerefMut; impl DerefMut for Vec { fn deref_mut(&mut self) -> &mut [T] { unsafe { ::std::slice::from_raw_parts_mut(*self.ptr, self.len) } } } ``` Now we have `len`, `first`, `last`, indexing, slicing, sorting, `iter`, `iter_mut`, and all other sorts of bells and whistles provided by slice. Sweet!
