Introduction to go programming language

Define slice

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {

    var slice_1 []int
    slice_2 := []int {}
    slice_3 := make([]int, 0)

    var slice_4 = []int  {1, 2, 3, 4}
    slice_5 := []int {1, 2, 3, 4}

    slice_6 := make([]int, 0)
    slice_6 = append(slice_6, 1, 2, 3, 4)

    slice_7 := slice_4[:]
    slice_8 := slice_5[0:4]

    slice_9 := make([]int, 4) // [0 0 0 0]
    copy(slice_9, slice_4)

    fmt.Println(slice_1, slice_2, slice_3, slice_4, slice_5, slice_6, slice_7, slice_8, slice_9)
}
// [] [] [] [1 2 3 4] [1 2 3 4] [1 2 3 4] [1 2 3 4] [1 2 3 4] [1 2 3 4]

Notes:

  • The first argument of make, append and copy functions must be slice.
  • The second argument of copy function also must be slice. (As a special case, it also will copy bytes from a string to a slice of bytes.)
  • The copy function returns the number of elements copied, which will be the minimum of len(src) and len(dst).
package main

import "fmt"

func main() {

    slice_1 := []int {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
    slice_2 := []int {11, 22}
    slice_3 := []int {111}
    slice_4 := []int {}

    count := copy(slice_1, slice_2)
    fmt.Println(count, slice_1)

    count = copy(slice_3, slice_2)
    fmt.Println(count, slice_3)

    count = copy(slice_4, slice_2)
    fmt.Println(count, slice_4)

}
// 2 [11 22 3 4 5]
// 1 [11]
// 0 []

SET the GOPATH and GOROOT environments

$ export GOROOT=/usr/lib/go
$ export GOPATH=$HOME/go
$ export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin:$GOPATH/bin
