 To fix this error, you can declare `create_some` as a constant function:
 
 ```
-const fn create_some() -> Option<u8> { // declared as a const function
+// declared as a `const` function:
+const fn create_some() -> Option<u8> {

-struct Bar {

-const BAR: Bar = Bar {x: 1};
+const FOO: Option<u8> = create_some(); // no error!
