+// Say we're writing a game where you can buy items with tokens. 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 cost of the items. Since
+// the player typed in the quantity, we get it as a string. 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 `total_cost` function on a string that is not a number, that function
+// will return a `ParseIntError`. 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!
