題目：
Copy your
Sqrtfunction from the earlier exercise and modify it to return anerrorvalue.
Sqrtshould return a non-nil error value when given a negative number, as it doesn't support complex numbers.
Create a new type type ErrNegativeSqrt float64
and make it an error by giving it a
func (e ErrNegativeSqrt) Error() string
method such thatErrNegativeSqrt(-2).Error()returns"cannot Sqrt negative number: -2".</br>
Note: a call tofmt.Sprint(e)inside theErrormethod will send the program into an infinite loop. You can avoid this by convertingefirst:fmt.Sprint(float64(e)). Why?</br>
Change yourSqrtfunction to return anErrNegativeSqrtvalue when given a negative number.
exercise-errors.go
package main
import (
"fmt"
)
type ErrNegativeSqrt float64
func (e ErrNegativeSqrt) Error() string {
return fmt.Sprintf("cannot Sqrt negative number: %v", e)
}
func Sqrt(x float64) (float64, error) {
if (x < 0) {
return x, ErrNegativeSqrt(x)
}
z := 1.0
for i := 0; i < 10; i++ {
z = z - (z*z - x)/(2*z);
}
return z, nil
}
func main() {
fmt.Println(Sqrt(2))
fmt.Println(Sqrt(-2))
}
Note:
上述代碼如果直接運(yùn)行的話會導(dǎo)致infinite loop显拜，因?yàn)?fmt.Sprintf("cannot Sqrt negative number: %v", e)會不斷調(diào)用e.Error()轉(zhuǎn)換成string寝贡，
所以fmt.Sprintf("cannot Sqrt negative number: %v", e)應(yīng)改為fmt.Sprintf("cannot Sqrt negative number: %v", float64(e))orfmt.Sprintf("cannot Sqrt negative number: %f", e)泳唠。
