- =head1 NAME
-
- carp - warn of errors (from perspective of caller)
-
- croak - die of errors (from perspective of caller)
-
- confess - die of errors with stack backtrace
-
- =head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- use Carp;
- croak "We're outta here!";
-
- =head1 DESCRIPTION
-
- The Carp routines are useful in your own modules because
- they act like die() or warn(), but report where the error
- was in the code they were called from. Thus if you have a
- routine Foo() that has a carp() in it, then the carp()
- will report the error as occurring where Foo() was called,
- not where carp() was called.
