3,950 Pointsdidn't understand what is the error
Why is this showing error
package files
import ("os"
"fmt")
func Size(fileName string) (int64, error) {
fileInfo, err := os.Stat(fileName)
if err != nil {
// RETURN THE VALUES 0 AND err
return fmt.Println(err)
}
// RETURN THE VALUES fileInfo.Size() AND nil
return fmt.Println(fileInfo.Size())
}

54,969 PointsSome hints:
- You won't need to import fmt or use fmt.Println since you won't be printing anything
- You are to return two values. Separate them with a comma. See video
- If err is not nil return 0 and err
- If err is nil return fileInfo.Size() and nil
