var m map[int]int
var c chan int
How to test if m and c is uninitialized with make
You can compare the values with nil
to see if they're initialized. For example:
var m map[int]int
var c chan int
fmt.Println("is m uninitialized:", m == nil) // true
fmt.Println("is c uninitialized:", c == nil) // true
m = make(map[int]int)
c = make(chan int)
fmt.Println("is m uninitialized:", m == nil) // false
fmt.Println("is c uninitialized:", c == nil) // false

if m == nil || c == nil {
wtf();
