chan <- i <========error on this line
}
assert(i < 100) // i is afraid of heights
}
}
I got error on this but could not figure it out, need help. thanks
syntax error: unexpected semicolon or newline, expecting { FAIL
Use channel <- i
instead of chan <- i
.
In you function definition (channel chan int
), channel
is parameter's name, and chan int
is the type. To clarify, your function could be rewrote to the following one:
func findPrimeNumbers(primeNumberChannel chan int) {
for i := 2; ; i++ {
if isPrimeNumber(i){
primeNumberChannel <- i
}
}
}
Additionally, assert
is not available in Go (http://golang.org/doc/faq#assertions).
