I have read through CommonMistakes as well as run my code through the -race flag, but I can't seem to pinpoint what is wrong here:
package main
import (
"fmt"
)
func main() {
i := 1
totalHashFields := 6
for i <= totalHashFields {
Combinations(totalHashFields, i, func(c []int) {
fmt.Println("Outside goroutine:", c)
go func(c []int) {
fmt.Println("Inside goroutine:", c)
}(c)
})
i++
}
}
func Combinations(n, m int, emit func([]int)) {
s := make([]int, m)
last := m - 1
var rc func(int, int)
rc = func(i, next int) {
for j := next; j < n; j++ {
s[i] = j
if i == last {
emit(s)
} else {
rc(i+1, j+1)
}
}
return
}
rc(0, 0)
}
(The Combinations function is a combinations algo for those interested)
Here is some of the output from fmt.Println:
Outside goroutine: [0 1 4]
Inside goroutine: [5 5 5]
Outside goroutine: [0 1 2 3 4 5]
Inside goroutine: [5 5 5 5 5 5]
Basically, even though I'm passing c as a parameter to my anonymous go function, the value is consistently different to the value outside of this scope. In the output above, I expected the 2 "Inside" values to also be [0 1 4] and [0 1 2 3 4 5], respectfully.
