This macro is used to inject panic into a Rust thread, causing the thread to

Each thread's panic can be reaped as the [`Box`]`<`[`Any`]`>` type,
|

which contains either a `&str` or `String` for regular `panic!()` invocations.
|

To panic with a value of another other type, [`panic_any`] can be used.

[`Result`] enum is often a better solution for recovering from errors than
|

using the `panic!` macro. This macro should be used to avoid proceeding using
|

incorrect values, such as from external sources. Detailed information about
|

error handling is found in the [book].

The multi-argument form of this macro panics with a string and has the

See also the macro [`compile_error!`], for raising errors during compilation.
