You can return an error response using the `http.ResponseWriter`'s `WriteHeader()` method to set an appropriate HTTP status code (e.g., 400 for Bad Request, 500 for Internal Server Error) and then write an error message to the response body using `ResponseWriter.Write()`. It's best practice to include a detailed error message for debugging.
