Panics the current thread.
This allows a program to terminate immediately and provide feedback
to the caller of the program. `panic!` should be used when a program reaches
an unrecoverable state.
This macro is the perfect way to assert conditions in example code and in
tests. `panic!` is closely tied with the `unwrap` method of both
[`Option`][ounwrap] and [`Result`][runwrap] enums. Both implementations call
`panic!` when they are set to [`None`] or [`Err`] variants.
This macro is used to inject panic into a Rust thread, causing the thread to
panic entirely. This macro panics with a string and uses the [`format!`] syntax
for building the message.
Each thread's panic can be reaped as the [`Box`]`<`[`Any`]`>` type,
which contains either a `&str` or `String` for regular `panic!()` invocations.
To panic with a value of another other type, [`panic_any`] can be used.
[`Result`] enum is often a better solution for recovering from errors than
using the `panic!` macro. This macro should be used to avoid proceeding using
incorrect values, such as from external sources. Detailed information about
error handling is found in the [book].
See also the macro [`compile_error!`], for raising errors during compilation.

# Current implementation
If the main thread panics it will terminate all your threads and end your
program with code `101`.
# Examples
```should_panic
# #![allow(unreachable_code)]
panic!();
panic!("this is a terrible mistake!");
panic!("this is a {} {message}", "fancy", message = "message");
std::panic::panic_any(4); // panic with the value of 4 to be collected elsewhere
```
