// If a deferred func evaluates to nil, execution panic when surrounding func ends not when defer is called

// Do not use defer inside a loop unless you are sure about what you are doing. It may not work as expected.
// However, in some situations it will be handy for instance,delegating the recursivity of a func to a defer.

// (the area inside curly braces containing the defer call). As seen in the example code, you can create separate blocks just using curly braces.

// registered with the defer.
