The Icon programming language has a nice error handling style that reminds me of Go's local error handling but with less boilerplate. Functions can return success/failure along with the actual return value, like an implicit Maybe/Option type. Converting the article's example code from Go: f, err := os.Open("file.txt") if err != nil { // handle error here } to pseudo-Icon: if f := os.Open("file.txt") then read(f) else handle error here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icon_(programming_language) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icon_(programming_language)
