Introduction

Roughly speaking, there are two kinds of types in Go. Non-collections and collections. Non-collections, like Boolean, Interger, Floats, and so on. We have discussed those types in "Primitive Types in Go". In that article, when we talked about text(strings and runes), we actually have used some kinds of collection types. Because string is collection of letters. Today, we will go deeper into collection types. Our main job is understanding two important collection types: Arrays and Slices.

In this article we will talk about:

1. Creation

2. Build-in functions

3. Working with

Array

0. Usage(aka. Why do we need array?)

For example:

func main() {
	grade1 := 90
	grade2 := 87
	grade3 := 79
	fmt.Printf("Grades: %v, %v, %v", grade1, grade2, grade3)
}
// output
// Grades: 90, 87, 79

There are two problems in this simple case:

1.  As the code goes long, it will be hard to find how many grades there are. 

2. Working with many individual variables are cumbersome than working with a collection. (Can‘t use for-loop)

1. Creation

First, write the size of our array in brackets, like [3]. Second, write the type of our data, like [3]string or [6]int. In Go and many other languages, an array can only stores one type of data.

What‘s more, data in an array will be stored in an continous section of momory, so it will be more quick than individual variables.

func main() {
	var grades [3]int = [3]int{90, 86, 88}
	fmt.Printf("Grades: %v", grades)
}
// output
// Grades: [90 86 88]

This code works fine. But we write [3]int two times. To make things simpler, we can write as:

func main() {
	grades := [3]int{90, 86, 88}
　　　　 //grades := [...]int{90, 86, 88}
	fmt.Printf("Grades: %v", grades)
}
// output
// Grades: [90 86 88]

Further we can write [...] to instead of the size number inside. If our array is long, we can use this method to avoid counting number by ourself. Especcially when we need redesign the code and change the list inside the array.

Some people say style like [...]int{90, 86, 88} will make a slice, they are wrong. Let‘s remember it is an array.

2. Build-in functions

There is a function len() to return how long an array is.

func main() {
	grades := [3]int{90, 86, 88}
	fmt.Println(len(grades))
}
// output
// 3

3. Wroking with(acess, two dimention array, copy)

We can use square brackets with index number to call and assign an element. In the result we can see, Go‘s array output doesn‘t have "," to seperate each element.

func main() {
	var students [3]string
	fmt.Printf("Students: %v\n", students)
	students[0] = "Lisa"
	students[2] = "Ahmed"
	students[1] = "Arnold"
	fmt.Printf("Students: %v\n", students)
	fmt.Printf("Students #1 %v\n", students[0])
}
// output
//Students: [  ]
//Students: [Lisa Arnold Ahmed]
//Students #1 Lisa

Two dimention array is most used, for matrix or dataframe.

func main() {
	var matrix [3][3]int
	matrix[0] = [3]int {1, 0, 0}
	matrix[1] = [3]int {0, 1, 0}
	matrix[2] = [3]int {0, 0, 1}
	fmt.Printf("Matrix: %v", matrix)

	matrix2 := [3][3]int {[3]int {1, 0, 0}, [3]int {0, 1, 0}, [3]int {0, 0, 1}}
	fmt.Printf("\nMatrix2: %v", matrix2)
}
// output
//Matrix: [[1 0 0] [0 1 0] [0 0 1]]
//Matrix2: [[1 0 0] [0 1 0] [0 0 1]]

Go‘s array has an important difference with other language. That is Go use array like a value. If we pass an array to another variable. Go will do a value-copy(copy), not a pointer-copy(view).

This may cause time complex problem when our array is very big. But we can use & operator to do pointer-copy(view) by ourself.

func main() {
	a := [3]int{90, 80, 70}
	b := a
	b[0] = 99
	fmt.Println(a)
	fmt.Println(b)

	fmt.Println("----------")
	c := &a 
	c[0] = 99
	fmt.Println(a)
	fmt.Println(c)
	fmt.Println(*c)
}
// output
[90 80 70]
[99 80 70]
----------
[99 80 70]
&[99 80 70]
[99 80 70]

Slice

0. Usage(Why do we need slice?)

1. creation

func main() {
	a := []int {90, 80, 70}
	fmt.Println(a)
}
// output
// [90 80 70]

func main() {
	a := [10]int {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
	b := a[:]
	c := a[3:]
	d := a[:6]
	e := a[3:6]
	fmt.Println(a)
	fmt.Println(b)
	fmt.Println(c)
	fmt.Println(d)
	fmt.Println(e)
