| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Also I think Go has the better error handling. Because it is only one and it is supposed to be next to the fallible Operation. Last time I counted there were at least these methods to signal an error in JavaScript: - a return value indicating the error, sometimes as magic number (null or -1) - throw an Exception - an error callback function, which is totally dependent on the framework you use You didn't handle any errors in your JavaScript example, because you aren't forced to. In Java, there are Exceptions, but calling code isn't forced to handle unchecked RuntimeExceptions and Errors. And if you handle Exceptions wrong - and there are so many ways to do this, like swallowing or rethrowing without the root cause, you'll need much time to look into your production issues. Go code is explicit and requires the programmer of the calling code to recognize the possibility something might be slightly wrong in some computer sometime. You're still allowed to ignore this warning by using `_` in `a, _ := fallibleOperationA()`, but it is much better and also cheap if your editor has snippet support to just type `ife`and hit tab and atom is expanding it to: ```go if err != nil { return } ```

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | (thanks, @wlonk!) Kit pointed out a defect in my modifications: > Rule xxvi defines precedence within the immutable or mutable sets as being defined by the lower ordinal number. > > Rule viii gives new rules numbers assigned by GitHub. > > Within the first few turns, a rule can be transmuted from mutable to immutable, or vice versa, and there can be non-unique numbering within a set. So we could end up with rule 6 and Rule vi both being, say, immutable, and no precedence being defined for them. Rather than make a more intrusive change, I've instead renumbered the rules to negative indices.
