+# Options
+
+Type Option represents an optional value: every Option is either Some and contains a value, or None, and does not.
+Option types are very common in Rust code, as they have a number of uses:
+
+- Initial values
+- Return values for functions that are not defined over their entire input range (partial functions)
+- Return value for otherwise reporting simple errors, where None is returned on error
+- Optional struct fields
+- Struct fields that can be loaned or "taken"
+- Optional function arguments
+- Nullable pointers
+- Swapping things out of difficult situations
+
+## Further Information
