Go Data Types
Go Data Types
Data type is an important concept in programming. Data type specifies the size and type of variable values.
Go is statically typed, meaning that once a variable type is defined, it can only store data of that type.
Go has three basic data types:
- bool: represents a boolean value and is either true or false
- Numeric: represents integer types, floating point values, and complex types
- string: represents a string value
Example
This example shows some of the different data types in Go:
package main
import ("fmt")
func main() {
var a bool = true // Boolean
var b int = 5 // Integer
var c float32 = 3.14 // Floating point number
var d string = "Hi!" // String
fmt.Println("Boolean: ", a)
fmt.Println("Integer: ", b)
fmt.Println("Float: ", c)
fmt.Println("String: ", d)
}
