Hello World 

For

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    sum := 0
    for i := 0; i < 10; i++ {
    	sum += i
    }
    fmt.Println(sum)
}

Hello World 

For ( cont.)

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    sum := 1
    for ; sum < 1000; {
	sum += sum
    }
    fmt.Println(sum)
}

Hello World 

"While" is spelt "For" in go.

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    sum := 1
    for sum < 1000 {
	sum += sum
    }
    fmt.Println(sum)
}

Hello World 

Forever

package main

func main() {
    for {

    }
}

Hello World 

If

package main

import "fmt"

func add(x, y int) int {
    if x < 4 {
        return x + y
    } else {
        return x - y
    }
    
}

Hello World 

Switch

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "runtime"
)

func main() {
    fmt.Print("Go runs on ")
    os := runtime.GOOS
    switch os {
    case "darwin":
        fmt.Println("OS X.")
    case "linux":
        fmt.Println("Linux.")
        fmt.Printf("%s.", os)
    }
}

Hello World 

Variadic functions

func sum(nums ...int) {
    fmt.Print(nums, " ")
    total := 0
    for _, num := range nums {
        total += num
    }
    fmt.Println(total)
}

Channels

 typed pipes

Send v to channel ch

ch <- v

Receive from ch and assign to v 

v := <-ch

Practical (ish) Example

package main

import "fmt"

func add(x, y int, ch chan int) {

    ch <- x + y
}

func main() {
    
    ch := make(chan int)

    go add(5, 6, ch)
    go add(15, 3, ch)
    q, z := <- ch, <- ch

    fmt.Println(q, z, q+z)
}

Buffered Example

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {


    messages := make(chan string, 2)

    // Because this channel is buffered, we can send these
    // values into the channel without a corresponding
    // concurrent receive.
    messages <- "buffered"
    messages <- "channel"

    // Later we can receive these two values as usual.
    fmt.Println(<-messages)
    fmt.Println(<-messages)
}

Synchonization

package main

import "fmt"
import "time"


func worker(done chan bool) {
    fmt.Print("working...")
    time.Sleep(time.Second)
    fmt.Println("done")

    // Send a value to notify that we're done.
    done <- true
}

func main() {

    // Start a worker goroutine, giving it the channel to
    // notify on.
    done := make(chan bool, 1)
    go worker(done)

    // Block until we receive a notification from the
    // worker on the channel.
    <-done
}

Range

package main

import (
    "fmt"
)

func fibonacci(n int, c chan int) {
    x, y := 0, 1
    for i := 0; i < n; i++ {
        c <- x
        x, y = y, x+y
    }
    close(c)
}

func main() {
    c := make(chan int, 10)
    go fibonacci(15, c)
    for i := range c {
        fmt.Println(i)
    }
}
