Handling errors in this manner is considered bad practice [1] and an anti-pattern in computer programming. In languages with exception handling support, this practice is called exception swallowing. Errors and exceptions have several purposes:
TypeScript added support for async/await with version 1.7 in 2015. [10] JavaScript added support for async/await in 2017 as part of ECMAScript 2017 JavaScript edition. Rust added support for async/await with version 1.39.0 in 2019 using the async keyword and the .await postfix operator, both introduced in the 2018 edition of the language. [11]
var x1 = 0; // A global variable, because it is not in any function let x2 = 0; // Also global, this time because it is not in any block function f {var z = 'foxes', r = 'birds'; // 2 local variables m = 'fish'; // global, because it wasn't declared anywhere before function child {var r = 'monkeys'; // This variable is local and does not affect the "birds" r of the parent function. z ...
The key to understanding design patterns such as IIFE is to realize that prior to ES6, JavaScript only featured function scope (thus lacking block scope), passing values by reference inside closures. [9] This is no longer the case, as the ES6 version of JavaScript implements block scoping using the new let and const keywords. [10]
LISP 1.5 (1958-1961) [5] allowed exceptions to be raised by the ERROR pseudo-function, similarly to errors raised by the interpreter or compiler. Exceptions were caught by the ERRORSET keyword, which returned NIL in case of an error, instead of terminating the program or entering the debugger. [6]

In addition to a guard attached to a pattern, pattern guard can refer to the use of pattern matching in the context of a guard. In effect, a match of the pattern is taken to mean pass. This meaning was introduced in a proposal for Haskell by Simon Peyton Jones titled A new view of guards in April 1997 and was used in the implementation of the ...
for X := 0.1 step 0.1 to 1.0 do might be repeated 9 or 10 times, depending on rounding errors and/or the hardware and/or the compiler version. Furthermore, if the increment of X occurs by repeated addition, accumulated rounding errors may mean that the value of X in each iteration can differ quite significantly from the expected sequence 0.1, 0 ...
