Interestingly, Go also kind of has a built-in set data type by using map
keys! https://go.dev/play/p/3-ZEKPSPUEh
I know that's not really what you mean, but I think it's a cool pattern.

Very true!

Nit but you can certainly create maps and slices in a library - you use methods
not language syntax - as long as you have pointers and type casting.

Hi group,
Why Go provides only 2 built-in data structures, slice and map. It has just
more than C, but less than all other programming languages I've heard of, C++,
Python, Swift, Rust.
I think this simplicity attracts me very much. Sometimes I can use only one
data structures for a task. B
