Code before:

Then if you call `Hinter.only_int` on something that isn't an `Int` (thereby triggering a `MethodError`), it issues the hint:

```
julia> Hinter.only_int(1.0)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching only_int(::Float64)
The function `only_int` exists, but no method is defined for this combination of argument types.
Did you mean to call `any_number`?
Closest candidates are:
    ...
