// A common case for errors is a situation where we're expecting to
|
||
|
|
// have a value OR something has gone wrong. Take this example:
|
||
|
|
//
|
||
|
|
// var text: Text = getText('foo.txt');
|
||
|
|
//
|
||
|
|
// What happens if getText() can't find 'foo.txt'? How do we express
|
||
|
|
// this in Zig?
|
||
|
|
//
|
||
|
|
// Zig let's us make what's called an "error union" which is a value
|
||
|
|
// which could either be a regular value OR an error from a set:
|
||
|
|
//
|
||
|
|
// var text: MyErrorSet!Text = getText('foo.txt');
|
||
|
|
//
|
||
|
|
// For now, let's just see if we can try making an error union!
|
||
|
