// errors1.rs
// This function refuses to generate text to be printed on a nametag if
// you pass it an empty string. It'd be nicer if it explained what the problem
// was, instead of just sometimes returning `None`. The 2nd test currently
// does not compile or pass, but it illustrates the behavior we would like
// this function to have.
// Scroll down for hints!!!

// `Err` is one of the variants of `Result`, so what the 2nd test is saying
// is that `generate_nametag_text` should return a `Result` instead of an
// `Option`.
// To make this change, you'll need to:
// - update the return type in the function signature to be a Result that
// could be the variants `Ok(String)` and `Err(String)`
// - change the body of the function to return `Ok(stuff)` where it currently
// returns `Some(stuff)`
// - change the body of the function to return `Err(error message)` where it
// currently returns `None`
// - change the first test to expect `Ok(stuff)` where it currently expects
// `Some(stuff)`.
