Error resulting from out-of-scope items

[junkbird]

I'm working on this example from a book. It gives me the following error message:

|
6 | println!("{}", basket.apples());
| ^^^^^^ not found in this scope

Both Println!. . . and let basket. . . are inside the main function. I cant seem to figure out why "basket" is out of scope here.

Any help is always appreciated.

fn main ()
{
    println!("double = {}", 5_i32.double());
    println!("double = {}", 5_i64.double());
    
    println!("{}", basket.apples());
    
    let basket = Fruit
    {
        apples: 5,
        bananas: 5,
    };
    
    
}

trait Double
{
    fn double(&self) -> Self;
}

impl Double for i32
{
    fn double(&self) -> Self
    {
        self*2
    }
}

impl Double for i64
{
    fn double(&self) -> Self
    {
        self*2
    }
}



struct Fruit <T>
{
    apples: T,
    bananas: T,
}



impl <T: Double> Double for Fruit <T>
{
    fn double (&self) -> Self
    {
        Fruit
        {
            apples: self.apples.double(),
            bananas: self.apples.double(),
        }
    }
    
}

Please format your code properly using triple backticks.
It says basket is not in scope since it is defined after the println! statement. Move it to before that statement.

Thanks for the response. I've flipped those around as you recommended. I now have another error that I can't seem to solve:
The compiler is telling me that I'm trying to call a method, rather than access a struct field.

[geeklint]

you should do as the compiler suggests and remove the () after apples

[junkbird]

yes, yes. thank you
