        fn concat(&self) -> Self::Output;

trait should not have to exist

An extension trait for concatenating slices

While this trait is unstable, the methods are stable. `SliceConcatExt` is included in the standard library prelude, so you can use `join()` and `concat()` as if they existed on `[T]` itself.

## Associated Types

### `type Output`

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`slice_concat_ext` #27747)

trait should not have to exist

The resulting type after concatenation

## Required Methods

### `fn concat(&self) -> Self::Output`
1.0.0

Flattens a slice of `T` into a single value `Self::Output`.

# Examples

    assert_eq!(["hello", "world"].concat(), "helloworld");
    assert_eq!([[1, 2], [3, 4]].concat(), [1, 2, 3, 4]);

### `fn join(&self, sep: &T) -> Self::Output`
1.3.0

Flattens a slice of `T` into a single value `Self::Output`, placing a given separator between each.

# Examples

    assert_eq!(["hello", "world"].join(" "), "hello world");
    assert_eq!([[1, 2], [3, 4]].join(&0), [1, 2, 0, 3, 4]);

### `fn connect(&self, sep: &T) -> Self::Output`
1.0.0

Deprecated since 1.3.0

: renamed to join

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g. `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
