Volker thanks for the reply. Coming from Python I can do a simple test like
if item in my_array: # do something else: # do something else I can understand that it cannot be that easy in Go (and then, why not, "equals" is already defined), but image you have to use a for-loop every time or a specialized function every time. That is awkward and unnecessary. I agree, that the more complex idea to have a "findFirst" with a dedicated matching function is more complicated, but hey, sort.Slice is the same thing, isn't it? It takes a comparison func to return -1, 0, or 1. func findFirst(slice interface{}, matches func(i int <https://golang.org/pkg/builtin/#int>) int) Just my 0.02. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
