𝗚𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗱 is a conditional statement to perform early input validation and detect problematic states, mitigating potential execution errors within a method.
The 𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 runs before the main code, quickly checking if specific conditions are not met and 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁 if necessary. It guards the rest of the code.
✅ By checking for invalid input or problematic states at the beginning code becomes less cluttered and easier to follow, enhancing both code 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 and 𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆.
✅ This technique is highly effective for preventing deep conditional nesting, making the logic flow clearer and more transparent.
