Some knives needs more sharpening than others before they get useful.

For instance, coming from mostly TS/C# I'm not going to be productive in Rust over night.

24 exercises sounds about right to me.

For me AoC was perfect while learning a bit of Rust last year, but tread carefully if you want to have 2 mutable references to the same value like a circular or doubly linked list.

Good luck and have fun with it!

AoC is pretty likely to have a graph problem at some point that will give Rust newbies fits! But that will help you learn!
