Fun fact: be careful when you do mathematical operations on different number types in Go. Sometimes you end up with truncated float, sometimes it panics, sometimes you get the right result 🤷‍♂️
Code snippet: // Dividing int by float doesn't give always same results fmt.Println(15/4.) // = 3.75 a := 15 fmt.Println(a/4.) // = 3 b := 4. fmt.Println(a/b) // err: invalid operation: mismatched types int and float64 fmt.Println(a/4.1) // err: (untyped float constant) truncated to int
