package y

// This file contains some functions for error handling. Note that we are moving
// towards using x.Trace, i.e., rpc tracing using net/tracer. But for now, these
// functions are useful for simple checks logged on one machine.
// Some common use cases are:
// (1) You receive an error from external lib, and would like to check/log fatal.
//     For this, use x.Check, x.Checkf. These will check for err != nil, which is
//     more common in Go. If you want to check for boolean being true, use
//		   x.Assert, x.Assertf.
// (2) You receive an error from external lib, and would like to pass on with some
//     stack trace information. In this case, use x.Wrap or x.Wrapf.
// (3) You want to generate a new error with stack trace info. Use x.Errorf.
