Hello World

A sample go program is show here.

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
  message := greetMe("world")
  fmt.Println(message)
}

func greetMe(name string) string {
  return "Hello, " + name + "!"
}

Run the program as below:

$ go run hello.go
Variables

Normal Declaration:

var msg string
msg = "Hello"

Shortcut:

msg := "Hello"
Constants
const Phi = 1.618
Strings
str := "Hello"

Multiline string

str := `Multiline
string`
Numbers

Typical types

num := 3          // int
num := 3.         // float64
num := 3 + 4i     // complex128
num := byte('a')  // byte (alias for uint8)

Other Types

var u uint = 7        // uint (unsigned)
var p float32 = 22.7  // 32-bit float
Arrays
// var numbers [5]int
numbers := [...]int{0, 0, 0, 0, 0}
Pointers
func main () {
  b := *getPointer()
  fmt.Println("Value is", b)
func getPointer () (myPointer *int) {
  a := 234
  return &a
a := new(int)
*a = 234

Pointers point to a memory location of a variable. Go is fully garbage-collected.

Type Conversion
i := 2
f := float64(i)
u := uint(i)
Slice
slice := []int{2, 3, 4}
slice := []byte("Hello")
