cargo clippy fix

General Approach for Auto Refactoring¶

1. use cargo build or cargo clippy to generate error msgs for a specific kind of issue

2. for each line of error (best to do it backwards), identify the place that need updates

3. update the code

4. iterate 1-3 multiple times until all issues are fixed
