# Error Handling in Go

#go

Go uses a simple and explicit approach to error handling. Here’s an example:

error_handling.go
package main


import (
    "errors"
    "fmt"
)


func divide(a, b int) (int, error) {
    if b == 0 {
        return 0, errors.New("division by zero")
    }
    return a / b, nil
}


func main() {
    result, err := divide(10, 0)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println("Error:", err)
    } else {
        fmt.Println("Result:", result)
    }
}

Error handling in Go is straightforward and encourages developers to handle errors explicitly.
