Golang结构中的operator =和：=

Question

Why doesn't this work? It works with := operator but why can't we use = operator here?

package main

import "fmt"

type Vertex struct {
    X, Y int
}


func main() {
v1 = Vertex{1, 2}  // has type Vertex
v2 = Vertex{X: 1}  // Y:0 is implicit

v3 = Vertex{}      // X:0 and Y:0
p  = &Vertex{1, 2} // has type *Vertex
fmt.Println(v1, p, v2, v3)
}

Answer 1

You can create an instance of your new Vertex type in a variety of ways:

1: var c Circle You can access fields using the . operator:

package main

import "fmt"

type Vertex struct {
    X, Y int
}
func main() {
    var f Vertex
    f.X = 1
    f.Y = 2
    fmt.Println(f) // should be {1, 2}
}

2: Using := operator

package main

import "fmt"

type Vertex struct {
    X, Y int
}
func main() {
    f := Vertex{1, 2}
    fmt.Println(f) // should be {1, 2}
}
