But that gets hard to read. So weve split it up, three lines for three
method calls. We already talked about `read_line()`, but what about `ok()`
and `expect()`? Well, we already mentioned that `read_line()` puts what
the user types into the `&mut String` we pass it. But it also returns
a value: in this case, an [`io::Result`][ioresult]. Rust has a number of
types named `Result` in its standard library: a generic [`Result`][result],
and then specific versions for sub-libraries, like `io::Result`.

The purpose of these `Result` types is to encode error handling information.
Values of the `Result` type, like any type, have methods defined on them. In
this case, `io::Result` has an `ok()` method, which says we want to assume
this value is a successful one. If not, just throw away the error
information. Why throw it away? Well, for a basic program, we just want to
print a generic error, as basically any issue means we cant continue. The
[`ok()` method][ok] returns a value which has another method defined on it:
`expect()`. The [`expect()` method][expect] takes a value its called on, and
if it isnt a successful one, [`panic!`][panic]s with a message you
passed it. A `panic!` like this will cause our program to crash, displaying
the message.

Followed by an `ok().expect()` invocation. Here, `guess` refers to the old
`guess`, the one that was a `String` with our input in it. The `trim()`
method on `String`s will eliminate any white space at the beginning and end of
our string. This is important, as we had to press the return key to satisfy
`read_line()`. This means that if we type `5` and hit return, `guess` looks
like this: `5\n`. The `\n` represents newline, the enter key. `trim()` gets
rid of this, leaving our string with just the `5`. The [`parse()` method on
strings][parse] parses a string into some kind of number. Since it can parse a
variety of numbers, we need to give Rust a hint as to the exact type of number
we want. Hence, `let guess: u32`. The colon (`:`) after `guess` tells Rust
were going to annotate its type. `u32` is an unsigned, thirty-two bit
integer. Rust has [a number of built-in number types][number], but weve
chosen `u32`. Its a good default choice for a small positive number.

Just like `read_line()`, our call to `parse()` could cause an error. What if
our string contained `A👍%`? Thered be no way to convert that to a number. As
such, well do the same thing we did with `read_line()`: use the `ok()` and
`expect()` methods to crash if theres an error.

This is how you generally move from crash on error to actually handle the
error, by switching from `ok().expect()` to a `match` statement. The `Result`
returned by `parse()` is an `enum` just like `Ordering`, but in this case, each
variant has some data associated with it: `Ok` is a success, and `Err` is a
failure. Each contains more information: the successfully parsed integer, or an
