Panic के Basics

// Entry point: execution of the program starts here
fn main() {
    // Declare an immutable variable `should_continue`, set to `true`
    let should_continue = true;
    // Check whether `!should_continue`
    if !should_continue {
        panic!("This should never happen");
    }
    // Print "Program continued normally" to the console (with a trailing newline)
    println!("Program continued normally");
}
