The [[Rust (programming language)|Rust]] language, instead of using exceptions altogether, instead represents recoverable exceptions as [[result type]]s.<ref>{{cite web |title=std::result - Rust |url=https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/result/index.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231009032955/https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/result/index.html |archive-date=2023-10-09 |access-date=2023-10-09 |website=doc.rust-lang.org}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |date=2011-10-29 |title=stdlib: Add result module · rust-lang/rust@c1092fb |url=https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/commit/c1092fb6d88efe51e42df3aae2a321cc669e12a0 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231009033047/https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/commit/c1092fb6d88efe51e42df3aae2a321cc669e12a0 |archive-date=2023-10-09 |access-date=2023-10-09 |website=github.com}}</ref> This is represented as <code>Result<T, E></code> (or <code>expected<T, E></code> in C++). The advantage of result types over checked exceptions is that while both result types and checked exceptions force users to immediately handle errors, they can also be directly represented as a return type within the language's type system, unlike checked exceptions where the declared potentially thrown exception is part of the function signature but not directly part of its return type.
