error是一个包含在<errno.h>中的预定义的外部int变量，用于表示最近一个函数调用是否产生了错误。若为0，则无错误，其它值均表示一类错误。
perror()和strerrot()函数可以把errno的值转化为有意义的字符输出。
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <dirent.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(void){
extern int errno;
errno=0;
opendir("/home/kkk");
//用法1：直接读取errno的值
printf("%d\n", errno);
//用法2：使用perror函数，把error的值转化为有意义的字符提示。
if(errno != 0){
perror("opendir: ");
// exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
//用法3：类似用法2，但使用strerror函数。
if(errno != 0){
printf("%s\n", strerror(errno));
exit(0);
}
exit(0);
}
输出结果为：
2
opendir: : No such file or directory
No such file or directory
以下程序用于显示所有的错误代码含义（经测试，目前的错误代码从0-132，其余未使用）
#include <stdio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(void){
for(int i = 0; i < 140; i++){
printf("%4d:%s\n", i, strerror(i));
}
exit(0);
}
