It *is* to give you everything you need to build everything you want, like Lego. Every language is different. Any developer worth their salt won't dismiss a tool out-of-hand for such a trivial reason. Also, consider the fact that in Python, the same loop is happening. Go just doesn't hide that from the developer, making it easier for us to reason about things like performance. You can write your own "find" function in seconds if you want one. -- ☕😎 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
