Arrays and slices This is part of a series of articles comparing the language of Go to PHP Variable assignment In PHP variable assigned is very simple : $myString = "My String"; In Go this is a little different. Go is statically typed meaning those familiar with other statically typed languages would expect to see something like String myString = "My String" http://alanhollis.com/php/go-compared-with-php-arrays-and-slices/ Thu, 26 Jan 2017 21:44:58 +0530 http://alanhollis.com/php/go-compared-with-php-arrays-and-slices/ Go compared with php. Arrays and slices Creating Create an array in PHP $myStringArray = ["One","Two","Three"]; In Go creating the above is a little more verbose and like variable assignment above there's also multiple ways to create a slice. The most similar way to that of PHP is as follows. myStringArray := []string{"One","Two","Three"} Appending Things become a little trickier when you want to append to an array. http://alanhollis.com/php/solving-bugs-phpunit-git-bisect/ Thu, 26 Jan 2017 21:44:58 +0530 http://alanhollis.com/php/solving-bugs-phpunit-git-bisect/ Solving Bugs With Php Unit and Git Bisect Sometimes as developers we don’t always catch everything in our test, bugs being the tricky things they are will always slip through the net. When they do we need to fix them, but where do we begin? The answer, PHPUnit + git bisect, using git bisect and PHPUnit we can quickly narrow down what commit caused the bug, which should allow us to find what caused and therefore solve the bug really quickly.
