 Once the program has a valid reference, the borrow checker will enforce the
 ownership and borrowing rules covered in Chapter 4 to ensure this reference and

-the `Vec` to be used outside the function since the `Vec` will be cleaned up at
-the end of the function. Try it out with the following:

-This violates one of the ownership rules we covered in Chapter 4: the `push`

-The reason behind disallowing references to the first element in a vector while
