 First we create a memory module with a `Frame` type (`src/memory/mod.rs`):
 
 ```rust
-#[derive(Debug, Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq, PartialOrd, Ord)]
+#[derive(Debug, PartialEq, Eq, PartialOrd, Ord)]
 pub struct Frame {
     number: usize,
 }
 ```
-(Don't forget to add the `mod memory` line to `src/lib.rs`.) Instead of e.g. the start address, we just store the frame number. We use `usize` here since the number of frames depends on the memory size. The long `derive` line makes frames printable, clonable, and comparable.

+_Update_: In a previous version, the `Clone` and `Copy` traits were derived, too. [This was removed][PR 52] to make the allocator interface safer.

 To make it easy to get the corresponding frame for a physical address, we add a `containing_address` method:
