# Getting started
We need to dive into language issues in order to work through problem-solving
issues. Recall:
## 1. Think before you program
## 2. A program is a human-readable essay on problem solving (that also runs on a computer)
---
# Practice!
Learning to experiment is key to learning to program. If you have a question,
try it out!
Time for a new rule:
## 3. The best way to improve your programming an problem skills is to practice!

# Calculate the circumference and area of a circle given its radius
Formulas:
```
circumference = 2 * π * radius
area = π * radius ^ 2
```
Requirements:
1. We need to prompt the user for a radius
TODO:
---
# Calculate the circumference and area of a circle given its radius
```bash
tmux display-popup 'rustc ./circumference.rs && ./circumference'
```
```rust
use std::f64::consts::PI;
use std::io::stdin;
// Calculate the area and circumference of a circle from its radius.
// 1. Prompt for a radius input.
// 2. Parse the input into a numeric radius.
// 3. Apply the area and circumference formulas.
// 4. Print out the results.
fn main() {
let mut input = String::new();
println!("Enter the radius of your circle: ");
stdin().read_line(&mut input).expect("No radius given.");
let radius: f64 = input.trim().parse().expect("Invalid radius given.");
let circumference = 2.0 * PI * radius;
let area = PI * radius.powi(2);
println!("The circumference is: {circumference}, and the area is: {area}.");
}
```
