Go isn’t an object-oriented language like C++, Java, C# etc. but it supports some of the OOPs concepts like Encapsulation, Type Methods, Composition etc. In this blog post, we will see how can we implement those concepts in Go Type Methods Link to heading Go does not have classes but it has types. http://www.viveksyngh.com/posts/pass-by-value-and-pass-by-reference-in-go/ Fri, 07 Sep 2018 00:00:00 -0600 http://www.viveksyngh.com/posts/pass-by-value-and-pass-by-reference-in-go/ In Go, everything is passed by value. When we pass arguments to a function, a function always gets the copy of the data passed. For example, passing an int value to function makes a copy of the int, passing a pointer value makes a copy of the pointer but not the data it points to. When we pass a value to function it is called pass by value and when we pass a pointer to a function it is called pass by reference.
