% Patterns
<small>There is a new edition of the book and this is an old link.</small>
> Patterns are a special syntax within Rust for matching against the structure of our types, complex or simple.
> A pattern is made up of some combination of literals; destructured arrays, enums, structs, or tuples; variables, wildcards, and placeholders.
> These pieces describe the “shape” of the data we’re working with.
```rust
let x = Some(5);
let y = 10;
match x {
Some(50) => println!("Got 50"),
Some(y) => println!("Matched, y = {:?}", y),
_ => println!("Default case, x = {:?}", x),
}
```
