We Panic

We can also initiate our own "panic" by calling the panic function.

examples/we-panic/we_panic.go
package main

import (
    "fmt"
)

func main() {
    fmt.Println("before")

    x := div(6, 2)
    fmt.Println(x)

    fmt.Println("middle")

    y := div(6, 0)
    fmt.Println(y)

    fmt.Println("after")
}

func div(a, b int) int {
    if b == 0 {
        panic("Do you expect us do divide by 0?")
    }

    c := a / b
    return c
}





before

middle
panic: Do you expect us do divide by 0?
