I am very new to Go and a beginner to programming. I cam across this:
res, err := http.Get("URL_HERE")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
Can anyone please help me understand this? Does http.Get
return two values? Is err
a pointer?
Yes, http.Get
returns two values. The documentation of http.Get
is here , and this is its signature:
func Get(url string) (resp *Response, err error)
err
is a value of the error
type, which is an interface so it could be nil
. From its documentation :
The error built-in interface type is the conventional interface for representing an error condition, with the nil value representing no error.
