Function Failure reporting: Error or OK

Function Failure Reporting: Error or OK

Go's "multiple return values" feature, can be used for several purposes. Among them for failure reporting to the function caller. Go has two conventions for failure reporting, but currently, no clear convention for which to use when. I've encountered different programmers that prefer different choices in different cases. In this article, we will discuss the two, and try to make the process of choosing our next function signature more conscious.

Simple Scala "DSL" example using easy to understand constructs.
object Story {
object Once { def upon = (x: a.type) => x }
object a { def time = (x: languages.type) => x }
object languages { def were = (x: inflexible.type) => x }
object inflexible { def along = (x: came.type) => x }
object came { def Scala = (x: inflexible.type) => x }
implicit def string(s : String) : inflexible.type = inflexible
def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
Once upon a time languages were inflexible; "Then " along came Scala ". The End!"
