create a variable with an initial value in go

To create a variable with an initial value in Go, you can use the following syntax:

main.go
var variableName dataType = initialValue
41 chars
2 lines

For example, to create an integer variable "count" with an initial value of 0, you can write:

main.go
var count int = 0
18 chars
2 lines

Alternatively, you can also use the shorthand declaration syntax to create a variable with an initial value:

main.go
variableName := initialValue
29 chars
2 lines

For example, to create a boolean variable "isReady" with an initial value of true, you can write:

main.go
isReady := true
16 chars
2 lines

Go is a statically typed language, which means that you need to declare the data type of the variable at the time of initialization. If you don't provide an initial value, the variable will be initialized with the zero value of that data type (i.e., 0 for integers, false for booleans, nil for pointers, and so on).
