I have some experience in C and I am totally new to golang.
func learnArraySlice() {
intarr := [5]int{12, 34, 55, 66, 43}
slice := intarr[:]
fmt.Printf("the len is %d and cap is %d \n", len(slice), cap(slice))
fmt.Printf("address of slice 0x%x add of Arr 0x%x \n", &slice, &intarr)
}
Now in golang slice is a reference of array which contains the pointer to an array len of slice and cap of slice but this slice will also be allocated in memory and i want to print the address of that memory. But unable to do that.
http://golang.org/pkg/fmt/
fmt.Printf("address of slice %p add of Arr %p \n", &slice, &intarr)
%p
will print the address.
Slices and their elements are addressable:
s := make([]int, 10)
fmt.Printf("Addr of first element: %p\n", &s[0])
fmt.Printf("Addr of slice itself: %p\n", &s)
For the addresses of the slice underlying array and the array (they are the same in your example),
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
intarr := [5]int{12, 34, 55, 66, 43}
slice := intarr[:]
fmt.Printf("the len is %d and cap is %d \n", len(slice), cap(slice))
fmt.Printf("address of slice %p add of Arr %p\n", &slice[0], &intarr)
}
Output:
the len is 5 and cap is 5
address of slice 0x1052f2c0 add of Arr 0x1052f2c0
