Variadic functions
can be called with any number of trailing arguments.
For example, |
|
![]() ![]() package main |
|
import "fmt" |
|
Here’s a function that will take an arbitrary number
of |
func sum(nums ...int) { fmt.Print(nums, " ") total := 0 |
Within the function, the type of |
for _, num := range nums { total += num } fmt.Println(total) } |
func main() { |
|
Variadic functions can be called in the usual way with individual arguments. |
sum(1, 2) sum(1, 2, 3) |
If you already have multiple args in a slice,
apply them to a variadic function using
|
nums := []int{1, 2, 3, 4} sum(nums...) } |
$ go run variadic-functions.go [1 2] 3 [1 2 3] 6 [1 2 3 4] 10 |
|
Another key aspect of functions in Go is their ability to form closures, which we’ll look at next. |
