In https://go.dev/ref/spec#Method_expressions Function values derived from methods are called with function call syntax; the receiver is provided as the first argument to the call. That is, given f := T.Mv, f is invoked as f(t, 7) not t.f(7). So https://pkg.go.dev/time#Time.Compare, func (t Time) Compare(u Time) int, becomes time.Time.Compare(t, u Time) int. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
