So what you're saying is that Go needs a ternary operator and generics? ;) But yeah, for assignment, you'd need a type specific operator, or you end up with an if else (or at least an if) to do a type assertion, which defeats the purpose... or just use if / else, agreed. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
