// Creating arrays with default values inside:

ptrs := [8]*int{} // a list of int pointers, filled with 8 nil references ( <nil> )
emptystr := [8]string{} // a list of string filled with 8 times ""
fmt.Println("zeroes:", zeros) // > [0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0]
fmt.Println("ptrs:", ptrs) // > [<nil> <nil> <nil> <nil> <nil> <nil> <nil> <nil>]
fmt.Println("emptystr:", emptystr) // > [ ]
// values are empty strings, separated by spaces,
// so we can just see separating spaces
// Arrays are also working with a personalized type
type Data struct {
Number int
Text string
}
// Creating an array with 8 'Data' elements
// All the 8 elements will be like {0, ""} (Number = 0, Text = "")
structs := [8]Data{}
fmt.Println("structs:", structs) // > [{0 } {0 } {0 } {0 } {0 } {0 } {0 } {0 }]
// prints {0 } because Number are 0 and Text are empty; separated by a space
