What are some effective error handling techniques in Scala?

In Scala, you can use techniques like Try, Option, and Either for error handling. Would you like to know more about each?

Yes, please explain Try and how it works.

Try is a container that can hold either a success or a failure. It helps you manage exceptions without using try-catch blocks.

How does Option differ from Try?

Option represents a value that may or may not be present, while Try deals specifically with computations that can fail.

Can you give an example of using Either?

Sure! Either can represent two types of values: a success or a failure, allowing you to handle errors more explicitly.
