Almost. dbg! also shows the statement in addition to what it evaluates too. That is:
dbg!(n * factorial(n - 1))
shows up as:
[src/main.rs:5] n * factorial(n - 1) = 2
[src/main.rs:5] n * factorial(n - 1) = 6
[src/main.rs:5] n * factorial(n - 1) = 24
Although, IIRC there was some crazy dumper module by dconway (who else) that worked similar to this, but I don't recall if it returned the value.
...
So, I just looked it up, and I found it. Actually, Damien wrote two. One that he updated from 2014 to 2016, and one he started in 2017 and has maintained to the present. I have no idea the reason for that.
Yep leave it Damien. I remember he did something similar for a test module where it would show the expressions that were evaluated in the test failure output.
