      Very different. This means default ignore all errors and continue to the next line. You’d have to explicitly catch every line in most(all?) other languages.

    • Ignoring every exception, including divisions by zero, is something I’ve never seen outside of BASIC and shell scripting. Even C and assembly will shit themselves when you do some of the shit that ON ERROR RESUME NEXT will ignore.
