<p>
The second <code>if</code> statement here is idiomatic Go.
The type assertion <code>err.(*os.PathError)</code> is
checked with the "comma ok" idiom (mentioned <a href="#maps">earlier</a>
in the context of examining maps).
If the type assertion fails, <code>ok</code> will be false, and <code>e</code>
will be <code>nil</code>.
If it succeeds, <code>ok</code> will be true, which means the
error was of type <code>*os.PathError</code>, and then so is <code>e</code>,
which we can examine for more information about the error.
