monomorphize | Monomorphization is the process of taking generic implementations of types and functions and producing instantiating them with concrete types. For example, in the code we might have `Vec<T>`, but in the final executable, we will have a copy of the `Vec` code for every concrete type used in the program (e.g. a copy for `Vec<usize>`, a copy for `Vec<MyStruct>`, etc). monomorphize | Monomorphization is the process of taking generic implementations of types and functions and instantiating them with concrete types.

newtype | a "newtype" is a wrapper around some other type (e.g., `struct Foo(T)` is a "newtype" for `T`). This is commonly used in Rust to give a stronger type for indices. newtype | a "newtype" is a wrapper around some other type (e.g., `struct Foo(T)` is a "newtype" for `T`).
