Zig's Curious Multi-Sequence for Loops

I tossed together a simple function using enumerate https://godbolt.org/z/PKsEdKvKK

You get the same exact asm as the manual loop.

Of course, the idiom recognition seems to kick in, in both cases, as there's no actual loop here. I tossed in a +sum, which makes that fail, so you get some loops, check it out:

They are one instruction different in length, which is kind of amusing to me. Some small differences.

Thanks, that’s exactly what I was asking. I don’t write Rust so it’s informative to see this.
