I’ve noticed a deprecation note on the Rust std page next to u8, i8, u16 and so on:
What is going on, and what will the replacement be?
>Solution :
The types themselves aren’t being deprecated, just the constants in the standard library. For example, std::i8::MIN is being replaced with i8::MIN (docs). The deprecation notice says:
Deprecating in a future Rust version: all constants in this module replaced by associated constants on i8
