SwiftHow to Handle Errors with do/try/catch
Handle throwing functions safely.
Steps
- Paste the code into a Swift file or playground.
- Run it once to verify the output.
- Adjust the inputs to match your use case.
Copy and paste
import Foundation
enum FileError: Error {
case missing
}
func loadFile() throws -> String {
throw FileError.missing
}
do {
let content = try loadFile()
print(content)
} catch {
print("Failed:", error)
}Notes
- Keep functions small and focused for reuse.
- Prefer safe APIs like optionals and guards.
