 the text of the panic message. If your function can panic in multiple ways, it helps
 make sure your test is testing the correct panic.
 
+**Note**: Rust also allows a shorthand form `#[should_panic = "message"]`, which works
+exactly like `#[should_panic(expected = "message")]`. Both are valid; the latter is more commonly
+used and is considered more explicit.
