copy-editing: if

I decided to break if-let out, as it's too complex for this part, but moving
if that late seems silly too.

-## Expressions vs. Statements
-
-Rust is primarily an expression based language. There are only two kinds of
-statements, and everything else is an expression.
-
-So what's the difference? Expressions return a value, and statements do not.
-In many languages, `if` is a statement, and therefore, `let x = if ...` would
-make no sense. But in Rust, `if` is an expression, which means that it returns
-a value. We can then use this value to initialize the binding.
-
-Speaking of which, bindings are a kind of the first of Rust's two statements.
-The proper name is a *declaration statement*. So far, `let` is the only kind
-of declaration statement we've seen. Let's talk about that some more.
-
-In some languages, variable bindings can be written as expressions, not just
-statements. Like Ruby:
-
-```{ruby}
-x = y = 5
-```
-
-In Rust, however, using `let` to introduce a binding is _not_ an expression. The
-following will produce a compile-time error:
-
-```{ignore}
-let x = (let y = 5); // expected identifier, found keyword `let`
-```
-
-The compiler is telling us here that it was expecting to see the beginning of
-an expression, and a `let` can only begin a statement, not an expression.
-
-Note that assigning to an already-bound variable (e.g. `y = 5`) is still an
-expression, although its value is not particularly useful. Unlike C, where an
-assignment evaluates to the assigned value (e.g. `5` in the previous example),
-in Rust the value of an assignment is the unit type `()` (which we'll cover later).
-
-The second kind of statement in Rust is the *expression statement*. Its
-purpose is to turn any expression into a statement. In practical terms, Rust's
-grammar expects statements to follow other statements. This means that you use
-semicolons to separate expressions from each other. This means that Rust
-looks a lot like most other languages that require you to use semicolons
-at the end of every line, and you will see semicolons at the end of almost
-every line of Rust code you see.
-
-What is this exception that makes us say "almost"? You saw it already, in this
-code:
-
-```{rust}
-let x = 5;
-
-let y: i32 = if x == 5 { 10 } else { 15 };
-```
-
-Note that I've added the type annotation to `y`, to specify explicitly that I
-want `y` to be an integer.
-
-This is not the same as this, which won't compile:
-
-```{ignore}
-let x = 5;
-
-let y: i32 = if x == 5 { 10; } else { 15; };
-```
-
-Note the semicolons after the 10 and 15. Rust will give us the following error:
-
-```text
-error: mismatched types: expected `i32`, found `()` (expected i32, found ())
-```
-
-We expected an integer, but we got `()`. `()` is pronounced *unit*, and is a
-special type in Rust's type system. In Rust, `()` is _not_ a valid value for a
-variable of type `i32`. It's only a valid value for variables of the type `()`,
-which aren't very useful. Remember how we said statements don't return a value?
-Well, that's the purpose of unit in this case. The semicolon turns any
-expression into a statement by throwing away its value and returning unit
-instead.
-
-There's one more time in which you won't see a semicolon at the end of a line
-of Rust code. For that, we'll need our next concept: functions.
