Hi all,
I think the second example alternative given (playground link above) has a
data race?
Sample race detector run just now. (The two reports are inverses of each
other: read then write vs. write then read).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
go run -race stop_flag_from_gonuts.go
. . . . . quit sending ...
after quit sent==================
.
