ziglings/exercises/32_unreachable.zig

//
// Zig has an "unreachable" statement. Use it when you want to tell the
// compiler that a branch of code should never be executed and that the
// mere act of reaching it is an error.
//
//     if (true) {
//         ...
//     } else {
//         unreachable;
//     }
//
// Here we've made a little virtual machine that performs mathematical
// operations on a single numeric value. It looks great but there's one
// little problem: the switch statement doesn't cover every possible
// value of a u8 number!
//
// WE know there are only three operations but Zig doesn't. Use the
// unreachable statement to make the switch complete. Or ELSE. :-)
