In Java, an exception outside a catch block automatically stops the method and raises the exception to the caller, and then their caller, and so on. In Go you have to write this after every function call (except the tiny minority that can only panic).

Thanks. I did know that about Java (having used it), just that it was not clear to me from your earlier wording, that that is what you were saying. NP.
