While reading through some documentation I found what appear to be a few copy/paste errors.

rchunks_exact

"beginning of the slice" should be "end of the slice" here:

rust/src/libcore/slice/mod.rs

Lines 840 to 841 in 9387927

/// Returns an iterator over `chunk_size` elements of the slice at a time, starting at the
/// beginning of the slice.

The second " of the slice" should be removed from the end of this sentence:

rust/src/libcore/slice/mod.rs

Lines 851 to 852 in 9387927

/// chunk, and [`chunks_exact`] for the same iterator but starting at the beginning of the
/// slice of the slice.

rchunks_exact_mut

The second " of the slice" should be removed from the end of this sentence:

rust/src/libcore/slice/mod.rs

Lines 892 to 893 in 9387927

/// smaller chunk, and [`chunks_exact_mut`] for the same iterator but starting at the beginning
/// of the slice of the slice.

Hey @cyrozap! You already figured out the correct locations in the sourcecode, why don't you open a PR and fix that? It would be a easy first PR for you and a great opportunity to contribute to Rust.
Is that something you can do?

Fix small errors in docs for rchunks_exact and rchunks_exact_mut.

The documentation for `rchunks_exact` said it started at the beginning
of the slice, bit it actually starts at the end of the slice.

In addition, there were a couple of "of the slice of the slice"
duplicate phrases going on for `rchunks_exact` and `rchunks_exact_mut`.

This fixes rust-lang#60068.
