bookModifying Variable Values

We've learned how to declare a variable. Now, let's understand how to modify the value of a variable.

Take a look at the following program, which prints the value of myVariable using the Println function:

index.go

index.go

copy
1234567
package main import "fmt" func main() { var myVariable = 7 fmt.Println(myVariable) // Using the name of the variable ('myVariable') we can access and show it's value }

We can use the following syntax for assigning a different value to the variable:

index.go

index.go

copy
1
myVariable = 9

Notice that this time, we omit the var keyword because we are not declaring a new variable. Now, let's add this line to the program:

index.go

index.go

copy
123456789
package main import "fmt" func main() { var myVariable = 7 fmt.Println(myVariable) // Outputs 7 myVariable = 9 fmt.Println(myVariable) // Outputs 9 }

In the code above, we employed the var keyword to declare a variable. Alternatively, we can use the := operator for variable declaration. In such a case, the code will appear as follows:

index.go

index.go

copy
123456789
package main import "fmt" func main() { myVariable := 7 fmt.Println(myVariable) // Outputs 7 myVariable = 9 fmt.Println(myVariable) // Outputs 9 }
question mark

Which is the correct way of changing the value of an already declared variable to 10 called myVar:
