type_error/2¶
Description¶
type_error(Type, Culprit)
Throws a type error. This built-in predicate is declared as a private method and thus cannot be used as a message to an object. Calling this predicate is equivalent to the following sequence of calls:
...,
context(Context),
throw(error(type_error(Type,Culprit), Context)).
This allows the user to generate errors in the same format used by the runtime.
Modes and number of proofs¶
