I noticed that Vec capacity grows dynamically when pushing data.

Is my mental model accurate? When the buffer is full, does it allocate a new, larger memory region elsewhere on the heap, move the elements over, and free the old block specifically to avoid overwriting or corrupting adjacent heap data?

number.max(othernumber) is similar to type::max(number, othernumber). Does the compiler infer methods as associated functions behind the back?

let mut  longest: usize = 0; 

longest = usize::max(longest, (end - start) + 1); 

longest =  longest.max(end - start) + 1);

I prefer the first one because it is clear that it compares two usize type values. As a beginner the second one feels like it is out of place. It's like setting the parameter to be the max value.

I think a dot operator is better for this [made up] example:

number.add(3); 
// instead of 
type::add(number, 3);

sealed interface Option<out T> {
    data class Some<out T>(val value: T) : Option<T>
    data object None: Option<Nothing>
}

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    val option: Option<String> = Option.None

    when (option) {
        is Option.None -> println("None")
        is Option.Some -> println(option.value)
    }
}

I'm a filipino and we are very familiar with using a semi automatic washing machine and just recently upgraded to an automatic top load. Been using it for a while and since we do not have a drainage system for it since our old machine is outside our home, I decided to just punch a hole lower than the drain inlet. I just recently learned about high loop. But I assume that my new washer has an electronic shut to allow water to drain out when need since It is currently operating normally. So is high loop still necessary? If yes do I risk a flaw in its operation? The manual only tells not to place the drain pipe lower higher that the inlet but didn't mention a proper setup for it.

If I dont need to add a high loop setup can I atleast add a lower high loop to allow the water to drip down instead of it crawling in our outdoor drainage?
