An immutable variable was reassigned.
Erroneous code example:
```compile_fail,E0384
fn main() {
let x = 3;
x = 5; // error, reassignment of immutable variable
}
```
By default, variables in Rust are immutable. To fix this error, add the keyword
`mut` after the keyword `let` when declaring the variable. For example:
```
fn main() {
let mut x = 3;
x = 5;
}
```
Alternatively, you might consider initializing a new variable: either with a new
bound name or (by [shadowing]) with the bound name of your existing variable.
For example:
[shadowing]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch03-01-variables-and-mutability.html#shadowing
```
fn main() {
let x = 3;
let x = 5;
}
```
