    /// Takes ownership and "forgets" about the value **without running its destructor**.
    ///
    /// Any resources the value manages, such as heap memory or a file handle, will linger
    /// forever in an unreachable state. However, it does not guarantee that pointers
    /// to this memory will remain valid.
    ///
    /// * If you want to leak memory, see [`Box::leak`][leak].
    /// * If you want to obtain a raw pointer to the memory, see [`Box::into_raw`][into_raw].
    /// * If you want to dispose of a value properly, running its destructor, see
    /// [`mem::drop`][drop].
    ///
    /// # Safety
    ///
    /// `forget` is not marked as `unsafe`, because Rust's safety guarantees
    /// do not include a guarantee that destructors will always run. For example,
    /// a program can create a reference cycle using [`Rc`][rc], or call
    /// [`process::exit`][exit] to exit without running destructors. Thus, allowing
    /// `mem::forget` from safe code does not fundamentally change Rust's safety
    /// guarantees.
    ///
    /// That said, leaking resources such as memory or I/O objects is usually undesirable.
    /// The need comes up in some specialized use cases for FFI or unsafe code, but even
    /// then, [`ManuallyDrop`] is typically preferred.
    ///
    /// Because forgetting a value is allowed, any `unsafe` code you write must
    /// allow for this possibility. You cannot return a value and expect that the
    /// caller will necessarily run the value's destructor.
    ///
    /// [rc]: ../../std/rc/struct.Rc.html
    /// [exit]: ../../std/process/fn.exit.html
    ///
    /// # Examples
    ///
    /// The canonical safe use of `mem::forget` is to circumvent a value's destructor
    /// implemented by the `Drop` trait. For example, this will leak a `File`, i.e. reclaim
    /// the space taken by the variable but never close the underlying system resource:
    ///
    /// ```no_run
    /// use std::mem;
    /// use std::fs::File;
    ///
    /// let file = File::open("foo.txt").unwrap();
    /// mem::forget(file);
    /// ```
    ///
    /// This is useful when the ownership of the underlying resource was previously
    /// transferred to code outside of Rust, for example by transmitting the raw
    /// file descriptor to C code.
    ///
    /// # Relationship with `ManuallyDrop`
    ///
    /// While `mem::forget` can also be used to transfer *memory* ownership, doing so is error-prone.
    /// [`ManuallyDrop`] should be used instead. Consider, for example, this code:
    ///
    /// ```
    /// use std::mem;
    ///
    /// let mut v = vec![65, 122];
    /// // Build a `String` using the contents of `v`
    /// let s = unsafe { String::from_raw_parts(v.as_mut_ptr(), v.len(), v.capacity()) };
    /// // leak `v` because its memory is now managed by `s`
    /// mem::forget(v);  // ERROR - v is invalid and must not be passed to a function
    /// assert_eq!(s, "Az");
    /// // `s` is implicitly dropped and its memory deallocated.
    /// ```
    ///
    /// There are two issues with the above example:
    ///
    /// * If more code were added between the construction of `String` and the invocation of
    ///   `mem::forget()`, a panic within it would cause a double free because the same memory
    ///   is handled by both `v` and `s`.
    /// * After calling `v.as_mut_ptr()` and transmitting the ownership of the data to `s`,
    ///   the `v` value is invalid. Even when a value is just moved to `mem::forget` (which won't
    ///   inspect it), some types have strict requirements on their values that
    ///   make them invalid when dangling or no longer owned. Using invalid values in any
    ///   way, including passing them to or returning them from functions, constitutes
    ///   undefined behavior and may break the assumptions made by the compiler.
    ///
    /// Switching to `ManuallyDrop` avoids both issues:
    ///
    /// ```
    /// use std::mem::ManuallyDrop;
    ///
    /// let v = vec![65, 122];
    /// // Before we disassemble `v` into its raw parts, make sure it
    /// // does not get dropped!
    /// let mut v = ManuallyDrop::new(v);
    /// // Now disassemble `v`. These operations cannot panic, so there cannot be a leak.
    /// let (ptr, len, cap) = (v.as_mut_ptr(), v.len(), v.capacity());
    /// // Finally, build a `String`.
    /// let s = unsafe { String::from_raw_parts(ptr, len, cap) };
    /// assert_eq!(s, "Az");
    /// // `s` is implicitly dropped and its memory deallocated.
    /// ```
    ///
    /// `ManuallyDrop` robustly prevents double-free because we disable `v`'s destructor
    /// before doing anything else. `mem::forget()` doesn't allow this because it consumes its
    /// argument, forcing us to call it only after extracting anything we need from `v`. Even
    /// if a panic were introduced between construction of `ManuallyDrop` and building the
    /// string (which cannot happen in the code as shown), it would result in a leak and not a
    /// double free. In other words, `ManuallyDrop` errs on the side of leaking instead of
    /// erring on the side of (double-)dropping.
    ///
    /// Also, `ManuallyDrop` prevents us from having to "touch" `v` after transferring the
    /// ownership to `s` - the final step of interacting with `v` to dispoe of it without
    /// running its destructor is entirely avoided.

    /// Type | size_of::\<Type>()

    /// f64 | 8
    /// char | 4
    ///

    ///
    /// The types `*const T`, `&T`, `Box<T>`, `Option<&T>`, and `Option<Box<T>>` all have
    /// the same size. If `T` is Sized, all of those types have the same size as `usize`.

    /// The mutability of a pointer does not change its size. As such, `&T` and `&mut T`
    /// have the same size. Likewise for `*const T` and `*mut T`.

    ///
    /// The `C` representation for items has a defined layout. With this layout,
    /// the size of items is also stable as long as all fields have a stable size.

    /// ## Size of Structs
    ///
    /// For `structs`, the size is determined by the following algorithm.

    /// For each field in the struct ordered by declaration order:
    ///
    /// 1. Add the size of the field.
    /// 2. Round up the current size to the nearest multiple of the next field's [alignment].
    ///
    /// Finally, round the size of the struct to the nearest multiple of its [alignment].
    /// The alignment of the struct is usually the largest alignment of all its
    /// fields; this can be changed with the use of `repr(align(N))`.
    ///
    /// Unlike `C`, zero sized structs are not rounded up to one byte in size.
    ///
    /// ## Size of Enums
    ///
    /// Enums that carry no data other than the discriminant have the same size as C enums
    /// on the platform they are compiled for.
    ///
    /// ## Size of Unions
    ///
    /// The size of a union is the size of its largest field.
    ///
    /// Unlike `C`, zero sized unions are not rounded up to one byte in size.
    ///
    /// # Examples
    ///
    /// ```
    /// use std::mem;
    ///
    /// // Some primitives
    /// assert_eq!(4, mem::size_of::<i32>());
