| **DON'T** explicitly catch Error or types that implement it. |
| |
| Errors differ from Exceptions in that Errors can be analyzed and prevented prior |
| to runtime. It should almost never be necessary to catch an error at runtime. |
| |
| **BAD:** |
| ```dart |
| try { |
| somethingRisky(); |
| } on Error catch(e) { |
| doSomething(e); |
| } |
| ``` |
| |
| **GOOD:** |
| ```dart |
| try { |
| somethingRisky(); |
| } on Exception catch(e) { |
| doSomething(e); |
| } |
| ``` |
