String Data Type
The string data type is used to store a sequence of characters (text). String values must be surrounded by double quotes:
Example
package main
import ("fmt")
func main() {
var txt1 string = "Hello!"
var txt2 string
txt3 := "World 1"
fmt.Printf("Type: %T, value: %v\n", txt1, txt1)
fmt.Printf("Type: %T, value: %v\n", txt2, txt2)
fmt.Printf("Type: %T, value: %v\n", txt3, txt3)
}
