Are you referring to C style if statements where you can elide the braces?
In go the braces are mandatory, so I don't think that really applies.
- layer8 4y agoI was referring to the Go documentation linked above: > One consequence of the semicolon insertion rules is that you cannot put the opening brace of a control structure (if, for, switch, or select) on the next line. If you do, a semicolon will be inserted before the brace, which could cause unwanted effects. I was assuming that the “unwanted effects” are not simply a syntax error.
