Hi, Nikita!

The implementation LGTM.

See minor comments about the test below.

Please, proceed the next review round with Vlad.

WBR, Alexander Turenko.

Use double quotes when a file primarily uses this quotes type.

1. Indent is strange (don't get what is the rule).
2. Don't use `err` for diagnostics (the message could can be unusable in case of an
   error).

Single qutoes -> doule quotes.

type(795) -> number
