// - update the return type in the function signature to be a Result<String, String> that
|
|
// could be the variants `Ok(String)` and `Err(String)`
|
|
// - change the body of the function to return `Ok(stuff)` where it currently
|
|
// returns `Some(stuff)`
|
|
// - change the body of the function to return `Err(error message)` where it
|
|
// currently returns `None`
|
|
// - change the first test to expect `Ok(stuff)` where it currently expects
|
|
// `Some(stuff)`.
