seems my question is not clear. my question is regarding naming of variables. i know that single name variables in go is idiomatic.
r for reader w for writer etc... Read(p []byte) (n int, err error) i dont get why argument is named 'p' instead of 'b'. there should be some reasoning. I dont get why 'p' is chosen as argument name instead of 'b'. thanks Santhosh On Sat, Apr 6, 2019 at 9:54 PM Philip Chapman <pchap...@pcsw.us> wrote: > p is the array of bytes that you want to fill with data read.
