warn

warn(msg)

Display a warning. Argument msg is a string describing the warning to be displayed.

Examples

The warn() function in Julia is used to display a warning message. It takes a string msg as an argument, which describes the warning to be displayed. Here are some examples of how to use the warn() function:

Display a simple warning message:

julia> warn("This is a warning!")
┌ Warning: This is a warning!
└ @ Main REPL[1]:1

Include specific information in the warning message:

julia> x = 10;
julia> warn("The value of x is $x.")
┌ Warning: The value of x is 10.
└ @ Main REPL[2]:1

Use the warning message as part of a conditional statement:
```
julia> y = 5;
julia> if y > 10
          warn("y is greater than 10!")
      end
```
Running the above code will not display any warning since the condition is not met. However, if the condition y > 10 is changed to y < 10, the warning message will be displayed.

Common mistake example:

julia> warn(123)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching warn(::Int64)

In this example, the argument provided to warn() is not a string. The msg argument should always be a string, so make sure to enclose the warning message in quotation marks.
