Signal Channels

Explore how to use signal channels in Go to manage the order of goroutine execution. This lesson helps you understand blocking and unblocking of goroutines using channels, enabling controlled concurrency in your Go programs. You will learn to coordinate multiple goroutines effectively, ensuring proper synchronization and sequence.

A signal channel is one that is used just for signaling. Put simply, we can use a signal channel when we want to inform another goroutine about something. Signal channels should not be used for data transfer. Let’s explore the use of signal channels to specify the order of execution of goroutines.

Specifying the order of execution for our goroutines

This lesson shows a technique for specifying the order of execution of goroutines with the help of signal channels. However, keep in mind that this ...
