+Another situation in which this occurs is when you attempt to use the `try!`
+macro inside a function that does not return a `Result<T, E>`:
+
+```
+use std::fs::File;
+
+fn main() {
+    let mut f = try!(File::create("foo.txt"));
+}
+```
+
+This code gives an error like this:
+
+```text
+<std macros>:5:8: 6:42 error: mismatched types:
+ expected `()`,
+     found `core::result::Result<_, _>`
+ (expected (),
+     found enum `core::result::Result`) [E0308]
+```
+
+`try!` returns a `Result<T, E>`, and so the function must. But `main()` has
+`()` as its return type, hence the error.
