## Overview
In this shot, we will learn how to get the current path in the working directory.

We will use the **`Getwd()`** method provided by the `os` package in Golang to get the current path.

## Return value

The `Getwd()` method returns two values:
1. **`Directory path`**: The current working directory path.
2. **`Error`**: Any error that occurs.



package main

import (
	"os"
	"fmt"
)

func main() {

	//Get working directory path
	curdir, err := os.Getwd()

	//check if any error occurs
	if err != nil {
		//display error if 
		fmt.Println(err)
	}

	//display the path
  fmt.Println(curdir)
}

## Explanation
In the code above:
* Line 4: We import the `os` package, which provides functions like `Getwd()`.
* Line 5: We import the format package `fmt`, which is useful for formatting input and output.
* Line 11: We call the `Getwd()` method and assign the two return variables to `curdir` and `err`. `curdir` represents the current directory and `err` represents error.
* Line 14: We check if the error `err` is present.
  * Line 15: We print the error `err` if an error occurs.
* Line 20: We print the current working directory path `curdir`.

We can also use **`_`** if we don't want to use the error value returned by `Getwd()`, as shown in the code snippet below:

>Note: We should only use `_` when we are sure there will not be any errors.

package main

import (
	"os"
	"fmt"
)

func main() {

	//Get working directory path
	curdir, _ := os.Getwd()

	//display the path
	fmt.Println(curdir)
}


How to print the current path in Golang

Use the Getwd() method from the os package in Golang to obtain and print the current directory path.
