Good explanation. As a note to others still confused, structs are passed by value by default in Go (what Anthony means by copy; it's not the original, remember that) and thus when we create a pointer we have a reference to the memory, which will not be cleared with the function stack.

For anyone looking to better understand Go, I'd recommend implementing OOP in pure C. Structs are essentially wrappers that hold data so you can easily manipulate related information. Methods are just functions with an inferred argument, and access modifiers are just structs that forward method calls to internal structs.

The structs in Go, C, Rust are just the data. In memory there only exists the data. In python and JavaScript each piece of object comes with the data just as the previous language, BUT it also has a bunch of other data that is not what u declared, for example a pointer to its class and the methods. For python for example it even holds onto the methods. 1st type of Language: [an object] - field 1 - field 2 And then somewhere else you have: - function 1 that takes in the type of struct as an argument Whereas the 2nd types of languages: [an object] - field 1 - field 2 - method 1 - method 2 - class metadata ….. This roughly can be what u can imagine the general differences

Anything is procedural underlying. Whole OOP is fake somehow, there are data and data and data and data. Rules of privilege modifications and metaclasses are kinda mix of syntactic sugar and compiler/interpreter rules, which don't allow to compile run something which is completely possible if written in asm or something. Can't access private member? Nothing existing in C. C program usually can get in all memory program get from OS, there is nothing banned. OOP is cannot be done or implemented in asm, it's completely in scope of interpreter/compiler, but everything ends as asm code (or VM bytecode of you want) - but everything at the end, before executing, is machine code or one step before machine code - and there is no way how to do OOP in machine code, it can be only do by higher level filter which dones't allow somethinf what not fit OOP paradigm but in fact it is still doable by machine code and computer itself. So behind everything, from OOP to functional approach, is just a C-like or asm approach - memory and functions. Nothing more.

But if struct has methods attached to it, then every object of that type will have some data about its methods silently embedded by compiler? So it's not like in Go "objects" have only fields while in JS they've also got methods and class metadata... Or am I missing something?
@axisaligned9799
@axisaligned9799 6 ай бұрын
@@adexitum im not sure I understand the question, the structs in Go, Rust, C are only the fields. Since the compiler always knows the type it does not need to embed the methods in the struct itself. if you use interfaces the struct WILL contain extra vtable data to be able to know which method to call. in JS its prototype-based so each object points to the class it belongs to and from there u can figure out which methods it has. but you can also dynamically add and remove methods, especially in python. so the objects are usually alot more bloated due to the dynamic and flexible nature of them

Hey thanks for that great video i just started with go. I was wondering how the compiler makes the link beween a pointer and the field issaved. Since the parameter is of type pointer the pointer itself does not hold a value or a field. Is there no need to point to a value first before changing the data? like func (book *Book){ *book.issaved= true }

When using SDKs, then most of the time instead of finding pure functions, you get structs that wrap methods e.g. myDbConnection.PutItem(context.TODO, &params) instead of dbpackage.PutItem(myDbConnection, context, &params). Do you consider this bad, as it follows the "bad practice" pattern you showed with the book example in the video?

As someone deeply rooted in functional programming, I've developed a strong preference for immutable state, always returning new instances rather than mutating, and maintaining function purity. We've recently incorporated Go into our stack, and I'm finding the transition intriguing but challenging, given Go's procedural nature. I'm keen to adapt my FP principles within Go's framework. Does anyone have tips or experiences to share on approaching Go from a functional perspective?

My main issue with Go is that pointers overload so many concepts: - Nullable fields use pointers so that you can have nil | something - Mutability is determined (as you point out) by whether I pass a pointer or not - Sidenote here being that if I don't want to write Java style getters all fields need to be exported and therefore mutable by anyone - Passing by reference for optimisation purposes on large structs means passing in a pointer Especially the last thing really screws up the first 2. You might have a nice, non-nullable struct that is safe to pass around but for some reason it grows and now should be a pointer. all safety gets thrown out of the window. Go makes it very challenging to write safe code.

> think more in terms of the memory Not necessary. Go is garbage collected, and so you can code like you do in JavaScript or Python until you are ready for pointers.

A lot of your explanations makes sense and I can agree. Coming from Java (especially Spring Boot 😒 ) and coding in Go for about 2,5 years now I am a bit confused. Lets assume you would save the book from your example in a database (for example a MongoDB or Postgres). My approach is to create a BookRepositoryInterface and a BookRepository which of course implements the interface. The Repository would have a save(book *Book) function. The database client would be set as a field in the repository (simple dependency injection). Of course this is simply imitating the practices from Java in Go, but I haven't found a better way till now. How would you achieve a "real" save to a database with your approach? I think it is a little bit abstract without a real world example. You need a client which manages the database communication and preferable you want only one and don't create new connections for every instance of the book struct so you would not loose performance.

This is pretty much like C# with the only difference that it seems that Go is using value types by default. For example "class" in C# is reference type, while there is still "struct" which is value type. Also I'm not sure how Go exactly deals with concurrency, because the way you are showing how to modify the "Book" by it's pointer can cause concurrency issues in C#. Better approach IMO is to create a new "Book" and return it and not mutate the state of the existing "Book" (I'm sure you know it, but I wonder if this paradigm is the same in GoLang). Also in C# we now have "record" which allows us to mutate only the parts we want from an existing object and return a completely new one with copied values.

Arguably it makes sense to also explain why you would use one over the other if they are the same. It does not make sense to call the other function "saveBook". Since it has a namespace it makes sense to call it "save". People coming from C know the pain of adding pseudo namespace to functions. And the joy of explaining to a beginner that all these books are different things "function saveBook( book *Book)" Very often what people like about object oriented programming are not mainly object themselves, but the syntax. Even some functional languages (.e.g Elixir) have adopted some kind of postfix notation because it represents the flow of data transformation from left to right. e.g. "books.first.title.toUppercase"

In the "good old days" the Golang approach would be called OBP ("object based approach/programming"-> encapsulation & abstraction) in contrary to the today's OOP ("object oriented approach/programming "-> encapsulation, abstraction + inheritance+ polymorphism). In OBP the focus is more in the interaction between object's than the taxonomy of objects into classes and class hierarchies. Unfortunately most programmers today a raise into OOP-thinking than understand first the OBP-thinking which is more fundamental and more near to the machine.

If your working in a single instance, lets say your core component, you probably dont need a core factory since your application is running with one singular core. therefor using an object oriented approach for this package would be an uneccessary overhead and therefor should not be done. I just add this because i see alot of go projects especially new ones which tend to 'over oop' everything just for the sake off. You need to balance it out based on your needs. Btw great video .)

that's true of most oop languages, they pass the "this" pointer in every method signature under the hood. only difference is that the methods are mapped directly to the type's instance. Most languages actually do something closer to what go does (as compared to the mainstream oop languages named). Sadly go lacks some extremely useful type constructs like tagged unions and is very naive in his type design.

To add more to this, most oop languages a class could have a “hidden” vtable pointer for any methods that are overridden by the derived class. Since go doesnt allow inheritance this doesnt exist. Simply put: Go struct is a “class” without inheritance and which allow you to specify read only methods.

I love this C approach. Doing everything manually. You can fully make OOP in C, with only one reason - when you try something like access private member from outside, compiler/interpreter of OOP language doesn't allow it. C allows it. So private loses its sense. But all things like constructor, inheritance, polymorphism and stuff, it can be all simulated in C - and even OOP languages compile into byte/machine code with machine/procedural approach, with a boilerplate and bloat of helping tables and tables and tables and tables... and whole stuff made just to make classes working. But it's just only a layer of abstraction, nothing more.

Thanks for the video! I'd like to say, that methods aren't exactly a syntactic sugar. They add methods, which modifies the type info, as could be seen from the reflection. Regardless of that, adding a save method to a model isn't nice in any language, not just Go - we don't know how this book is gonna be serialized. Serialization should be either a function, or a method of a specific book serializer, but definitely not of the book. Models have to stay models in any language.

SaveBook is just a random name I came up with to be honest. You need to understand that explaining things to new people is an art on itself, they need to make connections inside their mind. Using these names and other simple explanations really helps them to get a better grasp of the matter. Once they get better they will do their own due diligence to see that certain terms have a more deeper underlying meaning.

hey anythony maybe you didn't know this but, JavaScript doesn't have classes either. Any semblance of a class in javascript is ALSO syntactical sugar. If you're coming into Go from JS and the thing that confuses you is that receiver methods kind of look like classes, you probably have the IQ of a grapefruit and just stop coding right now. The thing that people coming from a language like javascript should understand is the flexibility they now have over how and where memory is allocated. In javascript you can't "burn the book" unless you do it explicitly littering your code with a bunch of junk. In Go, you can, with the addition or ommission of a simple character (*) you can decide whether that memory even needs to be allocated and persisted which makes designing performant code infinitely easier with a bit of foresight and experience.

Objects are objects, they expose behavior. Data is data. It doesn't matter which language you write. I recommend for you to look at domain driven design to distinguish them better.

Well, the same applies to other languages really. Receiver functions and class methods in any language are _also_ just syntactic sugar, with varying degrees of abstraction and complexity...

Good video, but odd language design. Structs and arrays passed as values (and implemented), maps and slices - as references, and slice reference can be invalidated during mutation... Odd.
