In Go, the following works (note one use of the map has one return, the other has two returns)
package main
import "fmt"
var someMap = map[string]string { "some key": "hello" }
func main() {
if value, ok := someMap["some key"]; ok {
fmt.Println(value)
}
value := someMap["some key"]
fmt.Println(value)
}
However, I have no idea how to do this same thing with my own function. Is it possible to have similar behavior with an optional return like map
?
For example:
package main
import "fmt"
func Hello() (string, bool) {
return "hello", true
}
func main() {
if value, ok := Hello(); ok {
fmt.Println(value)
}
value := Hello()
fmt.Println(value)
}
Wont compile (due to the error multiple-value Hello() in single-value context
) ... is there a way to make this syntax work for the function Hello()
?
