Go

// In Go, variables are explicitly declared and used by
// the compiler to e.g. check type-correctness of function
// calls.
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
// `var` declares 1 or more variables. The type comes
// _after_ the name of the variable.
var a string = "Initial"
fmt.Println(a)
// You can declare multiple variables at once.
var b, c int = 1, 2
fmt.Println(b, c)
// Go will infer the type of initialized variables.
var d = true
fmt.Println(d)
// Variables declared without a corresponding
// initialization are _zero-valued_. For example the
// zero value for an `int` is `0`.
var e int
fmt.Println(e)
// The `:=` syntax is shorthand for declaring and
// initializing a variable, e.g. for
// `var f string = "Short"` in this case.
f := "Short"
fmt.Println(f)
