 # Handling errors with `Option` and `Result`
 
 The simplest way to indicate that a function may fail is to use the `Option<T>`
-type. Remember our `from_str()` example? Here's its type signature:

+in a string, and returns an `Option`:
 
-```{rust,ignore}

-`from_str()` returns an `Option<A>`. If the conversion succeeds, it will return
