The _ is used as the https://golang.org/ref/spec#Blank_identifier to ignore 
right-hand side values in an assignment 
(https://golang.org/ref/spec#Assignments)

In VI(M) _ is used as a black hole register 
http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/change.html#registers when you want 
to delete clipboard text

Does the _ (blank identifier) in golang trace back to VI(M) _ (black hole 
register) or was _ used before this to discard text?
