* Error -> Defect for defects (#13908)Jacek Sieka2020-04-284-21/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Error -> Defect for defects The distinction between Error and Defect is subjective, context-dependent and somewhat arbitrary, so when looking at an exception, it's hard to guess what it is - this happens often when looking at a `raises` list _without_ opening the corresponding definition and digging through layers of inheritance. With the help of a little consistency in naming, it's at least possible to start disentangling the two error types and the standard lib can set a good example here.

* docs: move `not nil` to the experimental page (#14027)Rory O’Kane2020-04-212-26/+30
| | | | | When I heard that this feature existed, and found the 2018 changelog entry that said `not nil` was made experimental (https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/blob/devel/changelogs/changelog_0_19_0.md#changes-affecting-backwards-compatibility), I looked for `not nil` documentation in https://nim-lang.org/docs/manual_experimental.html. When I didn’t find it there, I initially assumed the feature had no documentation. This change moves the documentation to where readers will expect it. As well as moving the text to another file, I added instructions for enabling the experimental feature and tweaked some wording.
