Rust: zsh: no such file or directory: ./main

./main

zsh: no such file or directory: ./main

If you are trying to run a Rust Language program on your Terminal and you get "no such file or directory", well there could be two reasons for this error,

You have not compiled your program yet, hence the complied file is not yet created. You can compile your Rust Program file as follows,
```
rustc <file-name.rs>
```
If you think you have completed your file, then make sure that file exists at the location you are running it. Do a dir or ls command in the Terminal/Command Prompt to check based on your Operating System (Windows or Mac/Linux respectively).
```
ls -ltrh
