# Error management
You might have seen in the code base a lot of `.unwrap()` or `?`.
If you're unfamiliar with Rust check out the [Rust book](https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch09-02-recoverable-errors-with-result.html)
for more information.
What's important to know though, is that if you want to know *where* a particular operation failed
You can simply use `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` to get the location of where the model actually failed.
Let's see on failing code:
```rust,ignore
let x = Tensor::zeros((1, 784), DType::F32, &device)?;
let y = Tensor::zeros((1, 784), DType::F32, &device)?;
let z = x.matmul(&y)?;
```
Will print at runtime:
```bash
Error: ShapeMismatchBinaryOp { lhs: [1, 784], rhs: [1, 784], op: "matmul" }
```
After adding `RUST_BACKTRACE=1`:
```bash
Error: WithBacktrace { inner: ShapeMismatchBinaryOp { lhs: [1, 784], rhs: [1, 784], op: "matmul" }, backtrace: Backtrace [{ fn: "candle::error::Error::bt", file: "/home/nicolas/.cargo/git/checkouts/candle-5bb8ef7e0626d693/f291065/candle-core/src/error.rs", line: 200 }, { fn: "candle::tensor::Tensor::matmul", file: "/home/nicolas/.cargo/git/checkouts/candle-5bb8ef7e0626d693/f291065/candle-core/src/tensor.rs", line: 816 }, { fn: "myapp::main", file: "./src/main.rs", line: 29 }, { fn: "core::ops::function::FnOnce::call_once", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/core/src/ops/function.rs", line: 250 }, { fn: "std::sys_common::backtrace::__rust_begin_short_backtrace", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/sys_common/backtrace.rs", line: 135 }, { fn: "std::rt::lang_start::{{closure}}", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/rt.rs", line: 166 }, { fn: "core::ops::function::impls::<impl core::ops::function::FnOnce<A> for &F>::call_once", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/core/src/ops/function.rs", line: 284 }, { fn: "std::panicking::try::do_call", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/panicking.rs", line: 500 }, { fn: "std::panicking::try", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/panicking.rs", line: 464 }, { fn: "std::panic::catch_unwind", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/panic.rs", line: 142 }, { fn: "std::rt::lang_start_internal::{{closure}}", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/rt.rs", line: 148 }, { fn: "std::panicking::try::do_call", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/panicking.rs", line: 500 }, { fn: "std::panicking::try", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/panicking.rs", line: 464 }, { fn: "std::panic::catch_unwind", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/panic.rs", line: 142 }, { fn: "std::rt::lang_start_internal", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/rt.rs", line: 148 }, { fn: "std::rt::lang_start", file: "/rustc/8ede3aae28fe6e4d52b38157d7bfe0d3bceef225/library/std/src/rt.rs", line: 165 }, { fn: "main" }, { fn: "__libc_start_main" }, { fn: "_start" }] }
```
Not super pretty at the moment, but we can see error occured on `{ fn: "myapp::main", file: "./src/main.rs", line: 29 }`
Another thing to note, is that since Rust is compiled it is not necessarily as easy to recover proper stacktraces
especially in release builds. We're using [`anyhow`](https://docs.rs/anyhow/latest/anyhow/) for that.
The library is still young, please [report](https://github.com/LaurentMazare/candle/issues) any issues detecting where an error is coming from.
