Hello,
First, as I probably end my first reading of Go Spec in coming days, I want
to thank you all for helping me in that. Thank you. :)
Second, I have question about example shown in section "Appending to and
copying slices".
s0 := []int{0, 0}
s1 := append(s0, 2) // append a single element s1 ==
[]int{0, 0, 2}
s2 := append(s1, 3, 5, 7) // append multiple elements s2 ==
[]int{0, 0, 2, 3, 5, 7}
s3 := append(s2, s0...) // append a slice s3 ==
[]int{0, 0, 2, 3, 5, 7, 0, 0}
s4 := append(s3[3:6], s3[2:]...) // append overlapping slice s4 ==
[]int{3, 5, 7, 2, 3, 5, 7, 0, 0}
I didn't understand why s4 looks that after append. I would guess that if I
call append(s3[3:6], s3[:2]...) (s3[2:] replaced by s3[:2]) it should
produce result above. But I don't think clearly recently, to much on my
head.
Best regards,
Kamil
