Lampland (lunar crater)
Lampland is a crater on the far side of the Moon. It lies to the west-southwest of the crater Subbotin, and to the north-northwest of Eötvös. About four crater diameters to the north-northwest lies the prominent Tsiolkovskiy.
This is a torn Crater with a smaller pit intruding slightly into the west-southwestern rim. A smaller, cup-shaped impact crater Lampland A lies along the northeast inner wall and part of the floor. The interior of Lampland is marked by several small craterlets which are located mostly in the southern half. There is a slightly darker patch of terrain in the southeast part of the interior.

gollark: I don't have any conveniently example-able code in any recent projects.
gollark: I mean "error handling" as in handling normal runtime errors like "oh bee, this file doesn't exist".
gollark: I don't really mind exceptions, I do mind "hahahahaha just manually propagate error codes".
gollark: C also lacks good error handling, modern type system features like ADTs and generics, and usable macros.
gollark: One HTTP library leverages them to make it so you can't accidentally try sending headers after the body has already started being streamed, for instance.
