+# `Result`
+
+Our primary mechanism for error handling in Rust is the [`Result`] enum, which
+we briefly saw when discussing standard library types.
+
+```rust,editable
+use std::fs::File;
+use std::io::Read;
+
+fn main() {
+    let file: Result<File, std::io::Error> = File::open("diary.txt");
+    match file {
+        Ok(mut file) => {
+            let mut contents = String::new();
+            if let Ok(bytes) = file.read_to_string(&mut contents) {
+                println!("Dear diary: {contents} ({bytes} bytes)");
+            } else {
+                println!("Could not read file content");
+            }
+        }
+        Err(err) => {
+            println!("The diary could not be opened: {err}");
+        }
+    }
+}
+```

+
+<details>
+
+- `Result` has two variants: `Ok` which contains the success value, and `Err`
+  which contains an error value of some kind.
+
+- Whether or not a function can produce an error is encoded in the function's
+  type signature by having the function return a `Result` value.
+
+- Like with `Option`, there is no way to forget to handle an error: You cannot
+  access either the success value or the error value without first pattern
+  matching on the `Result` to check which variant you have. Methods like
+  `unwrap` make it easier to write quick-and-dirty code that doesn't do robust
+  error handling, but means that you can always see in your source code where
+  proper error handling is being skipped.
+
+# More to Explore
+
+It may be helpful to compare error handling in Rust to error handling
+conventions that students may be familiar with from other programming languages.
+
+## Exceptions
+
+- Many languages use exceptions, e.g. C++, Java, Python.
+
+- In most languages with exceptions, whether or not a function can throw an
+  exception is not visible as part of its type signature. This generally means
+  that you can't tell when calling a function if it may throw an exception or
+  not.
+
+- Exceptions generally unwind the call stack, propagating upward until a `try`
+  block is reached. An error originating deep in the call stack may impact an
+  unrelated function further up.
+
+## Error Numbers
+
+- Some languages have functions return an error number (or some other error
+  value) separately from the successful return value of the function. Examples
+  include C and Go.
+
+- Depending on the language it may be possible to forget to check the error
+  value, in which case you may be accessing an uninitialized or otherwise
+  invalid success value.
