Variadic functions
can be called with any number of trailing arguments.
For example, |
|
package main
|
|
import "fmt"
|
|
Here’s a function that will take an arbitrary number
of |
func sum(nums ...int) {
fmt.Print(nums, " ")
total := 0
for _, num := range nums {
total += num
}
fmt.Println(total)
}
|
func main() {
|
|
Variadic functions can be called in the usual way with individual arguments. |
sum(1, 2)
sum(1, 2, 3)
|
If you already have multiple args in a slice,
apply them to a variadic function using
|
nums := []int{1, 2, 3, 4}
sum(nums...)
}
|
$ go run variadic-functions.go
[1 2] 3
[1 2 3] 6
[1 2 3 4] 10
|
|
Another key aspect of functions in Go is their ability to form closures, which we’ll look at next. |
