You cannot re-declare a variable that has already been declared in the same scope.
Using the var keyword
Variables declared without an explicit initial value are given their zero value.
Basic Declaration
You must specify either type or value (or both):
var name string = "John" // explicit type and value
var surname = "Doe" // type is inferred as string
var age int16 // explicit type, initialized to the zero value (0)
Multiple Variables
Declaring multiple variables of the same or different types on a single line:
var name, age = "John", 30 // mixed types, types inferred
var a, b, c int = 1, 2, 3 // all must be of the declared type
var x, y int // both initialized to the zero value (0)
Grouped Declaration
Using grouped declaration syntax to declare variables together:
var (
name string = "John"
surname = "Doe" // type is inferred as string
age int // zero value (0)
)
Using the := syntax
Can only be used inside functions, not at the package level.
Short Declaration
Declaring multiple variables on a single line:
Using the const keyword
Constants are fixed values that cannot be changed after they are declared. They are read-only.
const varName type = value
Basic Constants
Constants can be declared without explicit types, but they must have values:
const daysInWeek int = 7 // explicit type and value
const hoursInDay = 24 // type is inferred as int
Grouped Constants
Declaring multiple constants in a single block:
const (
daysInWeek = 7
hoursInDay = 24
)
Computations on constants are mostly done at compile time, not at runtime.
