package main import "fmt" var g int // g = 1 // syntax error: non-declaration statement outside function body var i int = 2 // i := 42 // syntax error: non-declaration statement outside function body func main() { g = 1 i := 42 // type inferred fmt.Println(g) fmt.Println(i) }
// var i int // i = 42 // var i int = 42 // i := 42 // (is the same but this one cannot be used on the package level // var ( // i = 42 // j = 23 // )
