Arrays

In Go an array is a collection of elements of the same type with a fixed size defined when the array is created.

There are major differences between the ways arrays work in Go and C. In Go,

• Arrays are values. Assigning one array to another copies all the elements.
• In particular, if you pass an array to a function, it will receive a copy of the array, not a pointer to it.
• The size of an array is part of its type. The types [10]int and [20]int are distinct.
