//! Error handling with the `Result` type.
//!
//! [`Result<T, E>`][`Result`] is the type used for returning and propagating
//! errors. It is an enum with the variants, [`Ok(T)`], representing
//! success and containing a value, and [`Err(E)`], representing error
//! and containing an error value.
//!
//! ```
//! # #[allow(dead_code)]
//! enum Result<T, E> {
//!    Ok(T),
//!    Err(E),
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Functions return [`Result`] whenever errors are expected and
//! recoverable. In the `std` crate, [`Result`] is most prominently used
//! for [I/O](../../std/io/index.html).
//!
//! A simple function returning [`Result`] might be
//! defined and used like so:
//!
//! ```
//! #[derive(Debug)]
//! enum Version { Version1, Version2 }
//!
//! fn parse_version(header: &[u8]) -> Result<Version, &'static str> {
//!     match header.get(0) {
//!         None => Err("invalid header length"),
//!         Some(&1) => Ok(Version::Version1),
//!         Some(&2) => Ok(Version::Version2),
//!         Some(_) => Err("invalid version"),
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! let version = parse_version(&[1, 2, 3, 4]);
//! match version {
//!     Ok(v) => println!("working with version: {:?}", v),
//!     Err(e) => println!("error parsing header: {:?}", e),
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Pattern matching on [`Result`]s is clear and straightforward for
//! simple cases, but [`Result`] comes with some convenience methods
//! that make working with it more succinct.
//!
//! ```
//! let good_result: Result<i32, i32> = Ok(10);
//! let bad_result: Result<i32, i32> = Err(10);
//!
//! // The `is_ok` and `is_err` methods do what they say.
//! assert!(good_result.is_ok() && !good_result.is_err());
//! assert!(bad_result.is_err() && !bad_result.is_ok());
//!
//! // `map` consumes the `Result` and produces another.
//! let good_result: Result<i32, i32> = good_result.map(|i| i + 1);
//! let bad_result: Result<i32, i32> = bad_result.map(|i| i - 1);
//!
//! // Use `and_then` to continue the computation.
//! let good_result: Result<bool, i32> = good_result.and_then(|i| Ok(i == 11));
//!
//! // Use `or_else` to handle the error.
//! let bad_result: Result<i32, i32> = bad_result.or_else(|i| Ok(i + 20));
//!
//! // Consume the result and return the contents with `unwrap`.
//! let final_awesome_result = good_result.unwrap();
//! ```
//!
//! # Results must be used
//!
//! A common problem with using return values to indicate errors is
//! that it is easy to ignore the return value, thus failing to handle
//! the error. [`Result`] is annotated with the `#[must_use]` attribute,
//! which will cause the compiler to issue a warning when a Result
//! value is ignored. This makes [`Result`] especially useful with
//! functions that may encounter errors but don't otherwise return a
//! useful value.
//!
//! Consider the [`write_all`] method defined for I/O types
//! by the [`Write`] trait:
//!
//! ```
//! use std::io;
//!
//! trait Write {
//!     fn write_all(&mut self, bytes: &[u8]) -> Result<(), io::Error>;
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! *Note: The actual definition of [`Write`] uses [`io::Result`], which
//! is just a synonym for [`Result`]`<T, `[`io::Error`]`>`.*
//!
//! This method doesn't produce a value, but the write may
//! fail. It's crucial to handle the error case, and *not* write
//! something like this:
//!
//! ```no_run
//! # #![allow(unused_must_use)] // \o/
//! use std::fs::File;
//! use std::io::prelude::*;
//!
//! let mut file = File::create("valuable_data.txt").unwrap();
//! // If `write_all` errors, then we'll never know, because the return
//! // value is ignored.
//! file.write_all(b"important message");
//! ```
//!
//! If you *do* write that in Rust, the compiler will give you a
//! warning (by default, controlled by the `unused_must_use` lint).
//!
//! You might instead, if you don't want to handle the error, simply
//! assert success with [`expect`]. This will panic if the
//! write fails, providing a marginally useful message indicating why:
//!
//! ```{.no_run}
//! use std::fs::File;
//! use std::io::prelude::*;
//!
//! let mut file = File::create("valuable_data.txt").unwrap();
//! file.write_all(b"important message").expect("failed to write message");
//! ```
//!
//! You might also simply assert success:
//!
//! ```{.no_run}
//! # use std::fs::File;
//! # use std::io::prelude::*;
//! # let mut file = File::create("valuable_data.txt").unwrap();
//! assert!(file.write_all(b"important message").is_ok());
//! ```
//!
//! Or propagate the error up the call stack with [`try!`]:
//!
//! ```
//! # use std::fs::File;
//! # use std::io::prelude::*;
//! # use std::io;
//! # #[allow(dead_code)]
//! fn write_message() -> io::Result<()> {
//!     let mut file = try!(File::create("valuable_data.txt"));
//!     try!(file.write_all(b"important message"));
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! # The `try!` macro
//!
//! When writing code that calls many functions that return the
//! [`Result`] type, the error handling can be tedious. The [`try!`]
//! macro hides some of the boilerplate of propagating errors up the
//! call stack.
//!
//! It replaces this:
//!
//! ```
//! # #![allow(dead_code)]
//! use std::fs::File;
//! use std::io::prelude::*;
//! use std::io;
//!
//! struct Info {
//!     name: String,
//!     age: i32,
//!     rating: i32,
//! }
//!
//! fn write_info(info: &Info) -> io::Result<()> {
//!     // Early return on error
//!     let mut file = match File::create("my_best_friends.txt") {
//!            Err(e) => return Err(e),
//!            Ok(f) => f,
//!     };
//!     if let Err(e) = file.write_all(format!("name: {}\n", info.name).as_bytes()) {
//!         return Err(e)
//!     }
//!     if let Err(e) = file.write_all(format!("age: {}\n", info.age).as_bytes()) {
//!         return Err(e)
//!     }
//!     if let Err(e) = file.write_all(format!("rating: {}\n", info.rating).as_bytes()) {
//!         return Err(e)
//!     }
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! With this:
//!
//! ```
//! # #![allow(dead_code)]
//! use std::fs::File;
//! use std::io::prelude::*;
//! use std::io;
//!
//! struct Info {
//!     name: String,
//!     age: i32,
//!     rating: i32,
//! }
//!
//! fn write_info(info: &Info) -> io::Result<()> {
//!     let mut file = try!(File::create("my_best_friends.txt"));
//!     // Early return on error
//!     try!(file.write_all(format!("name: {}\n", info.name).as_bytes()));
//!     try!(file.write_all(format!("age: {}\n", info.age).as_bytes()));
//!     try!(file.write_all(format!("rating: {}\n", info.rating).as_bytes()));
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! *It's much nicer!*
//!
//! Wrapping an expression in [`try!`] will result in the unwrapped
//! success ([`Ok`]) value, unless the result is [`Err`], in which case
//! [`Err`] is returned early from the enclosing function. Its simple definition
//! makes it clear:
//!
//! ```
//! macro_rules! try {
//!     ($e:expr) => (match $e { Ok(e) => e, Err(e) => return Err(e) })
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! [`try!`] is imported by the prelude and is available everywhere, but it can only
//! be used in functions that return [`Result`] because of the early return of
//! [`Err`] that it provides.
