Go Primitive types
- boolean type → default value is 0 / false
- numeric types
- integers
- int8 → -128: 127
- int16 → -32 768: 32767
- int32 → -2 147 483 648: 2 147 483 647
- int 64 → big number
- unit8 → 0: 255
- unit16 → 0: 65 535
- unit32 → bit number
- float
- complex numbers
- complex64 example
1 + 2i
- complex128
- get the real number part by using
real(var)
- get the imaginary part by using
imag(var)
- text types
- a
string is any utf8 character so that makes it very powerful but that means the strings cannot encode every type of character that’s available.
- note that strings also are immutable in go
rune
- a
string is any utf32 character
- can be created by assigning a single cote ” to a variable ex
r := 'a'
- runes are just a type alias for int32
