sample.rs

pub mod sample {
   pub fn sayHello(name:String) {
      println!("Hello {}",name);

Compile:
    $ rustc main.rs
Execute:

    Hello Herry Potter

Explanation:

In the above program, we created a module Sample in the "sample.rs" file. The Sample module contains a function sayHello() to print the message on the console screen. Then we imported the file using the mod keyword in the "main.rs" file.

In the main() function, we called the sayHello() method with a specified string and printed the result.
