All items cost +// 5 tokens, and whenever you purchase items there is a processing fee of 1 +// token. A player of the game will type in how many items they want to buy, +// and the `total_cost` function will calculate the total number of tokens. +// Since the player typed in the quantity, though, we get it as a string-- and +// they might have typed anything, not just numbers! + +// Right now, this function isn't handling the error case at all (and isn't +// handling the success case properly either). What we want to do is: +// if we call the `parse` function on a string that is not a number, that +// function will return a `ParseIntError`, and in that case, we want to +// immediately return that error from our function and not try to multiply +// and add. + +// There are at least two ways to implement this that are both correct-- but +// one is a lot shorter!
