What are the different types of errors in Rust?

In Rust, there are two main types of errors: recoverable and unrecoverable errors. Recoverable errors are handled using the Result type, while unrecoverable errors cause the program to panic.

Can you give me an example of a recoverable error?

Sure! A common example of a recoverable error is when you try to read a file that doesn't exist. You can use the Result type to handle this gracefully.

What about unrecoverable errors?

Unrecoverable errors occur when the program encounters a situation it can't recover from, like accessing an out-of-bounds index in an array. This will cause a panic.

How can I handle these errors in my code?

You can use pattern matching with the Result type to handle recoverable errors, and for unrecoverable errors, you can use the panic! macro to stop execution.
