Solution Review: Anonymous Struct

Explore how to declare and use anonymous structs in Go, including how to assign values and print struct fields individually or entirely. This lesson helps you understand anonymous and named fields within structs, preparing you for working with methods next.

We'll cover the following...
Go (1.6.2)
package main
import "fmt"
type C struct {   // struct 
	x float32      
	int      // int type anonymous field
	string     // string type anonymous field
}
func main() {
	c := C{3.14, 7, "hello"}  // making struct via literal expression
	fmt.Println(c.x, c.int, c.string) // output: 3.14 7 hello
	fmt.Println(c)  // output: {3.14 7 hello}
}

In the code above, look at line 4, where we declare a struct of type C. It has three fields. The first field is a named field x of type float32. The second and third ...
