 ## packages

-## variables
-
-In Go an application is organized in packages. A package is a collection of source files located in the same folder. All source files in a folder must have the same package name at the top of the file. The package name is preferred to be the same as the folder it is located in.
-
-```go
-package greeting
-```
-
-Go is a statically-typed language, which means that everything has a type at compile-time. Assigning a value to a name is referred to as defining a variable. A variable can be defined either by explicitly specifying its type, or by assigning a value to have the Go compiler infer its type based on the assigned value.
-
-```go
-var explicit int // Explicitly typed
-implicit := 10   // Implicitly typed
-```
-
-The value of a variable can be assigned using the `:=` and updated using the `=`. Once defined, a variable's type can never change.
-
-```go
-count := 1 // Assign initial value
-count = 2  // Update to new value
-
-// Compiler error when assigning different type
-// count = false
-```
-
-A function can have zero or more parameters. All parameters must be explicitly typed, there is no type inference for parameters. A function can also have multiple return values which must also be explicitly typed. Values are returned from functions using the `return` keyword. To allow a function to be called by code in other packages, the name of the function must start with a capital letter.
-
-```go
-package greeting
-
-// Hello is a public function
-func Hello(name string) string {
-    return hello(name)
-}
-
-// hello is a private function
-func hello(name string) string {
-    return "Hello " + name
-}
-```
-
-Invoking a function is done by specifying the function name and passing arguments for each of the function's parameters.
-
-Go supports two types of comments. Single line comments are preceded by `//` and multiline comments are inserted between `/*` and `*/`.
