Anything LiveCode Can Learn From GO

[Rick Harrison]

Hi Sannyasin,

I found a quick small snippet of some “Hello World” GO code and have listed it below.

I much prefer LiveCode syntax over this stuff any day.
Stick with LiveCode, it’s just better!

Just my 2 cents for the day.

Cheers,

Rick 

Add a test to the stringutil package by creating the file$GOPATH/src/github.com/user/stringutil/reverse_test.go containing the following Go code.

package stringutil

import "testing"

func TestReverse(t *testing.T) {
	cases := []struct {
		in, want string
	}{
		{"Hello, world", "dlrow ,olleH"},
		{"Hello, 世界", "界世 ,olleH"},
		{"", ""},
	}
	for _, c := range cases {
		got := Reverse(c.in)
		if got != c.want {
			t.Errorf("Reverse(%q) == %q, want %q", c.in, got, c.want)
		}
	}
}
Then run the test with go test:

$ go test github.com/user/stringutil
ok  	github.com/user/stringutil 0.165s
