Hey Jony
Would this involve some form of compile time type checking for these
values? If not we already have them in the form of tuples.
@type result :: {:ok, string()} | {:error, string()}
If you want compile time checks this would be more difficult. I've
experimented a little with compile time checks with macros, check it out
here -> https://github.com/lpil/sum
Cheers,
Louis
