In golang slices are dynamic, so a mention of append() for slice updates seems to be appropriate.

// Because they are dynamic, slices can be appended to on-demand.

// To append elements to a slice, built-in append() function is used.
|

// First argument is a slice to which we are appending. Commonly,
|
||||
// the array variable is updated in place, as in example below.
|
||||
s := []int{1, 2, 3} // Result is a slice of length 3.
|
||||
s = append(s, 4, 5, 6) // Added 3 elements. Slice now has length of 6.
|
||||
fmt.Println(s) // Updated slice is now [1 2 3 4 5 6]
|
||||
// To append another slice, instead of list of atomic elements we can
|
||||
// pass a reference to a slice or a slice literal like this, with a
|
||||
// trailing elipsis, meaning take an array and unpack its elements,
|
||||
// appending them to the slice.
|
||||
s = append(s, []int{7, 8, 9}...) // Second argument is an array literal.
|

fmt.Println(s) // Updated slice is now [1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9]

fmt.Println(*p, *q) // * follows a pointer. This prints two ints.
