Variables contain data, and data can be of different data types, or types for short. Golang is a statically typed language; this means the compiler must know the types of all the variables, either because they were explicitly indicated or because the compiler can infer the type from the code context. A type defines the set of values and the set of operations that can take place on those values.
Type bool
in Golang is the set of Boolean values, True or False. Below is how you declare a variable of type bool
:
var var_name bool
package mainimport "fmt"func main() {var var1 bool = truefmt.Printf("Type of var1: %T", var1)}
The above code declares the variable var1
with type bool
, and displays its type using the Printf
method from the fmt
package.
