Learning Go is going well.
Slice maxing, they have an interesting implementation. In D, for example, you cannot up-length a slice, only downsize it. To be honest that makes more sense. I understand the differences in the internal implementations too and how to use them, but thought it was interesting that Go did it differently.
#D #go
Golang's `defer` is lackin'.
Could have added scope guards, but added something that:
1. Only works with function calls?
2. Evaluates the arguments at defer line not deferral time
3. Yeah number 1 tbh
Either way enjoying learning another language for fun, took some getting used to (the type system isn't that straight forward; and that's coming from someone who understood OCaml very well/enough).
I think it may have been hyped a little but I want to learn it anyways; best way to see if the juice is as sweet as they say it is.
Decided to start learning Go, going to see how much I can learn just before the end of this month.
Will probably be the fastest I have learnt a language. Going for a speedrun.
