Hi, I'm new to learning Go and I've been trying out some small use cases to learn it a bit better. I made this function to fill 10 lines of a file with "some text". When I tried this with error checking, the program panicked at the WriteString line. Am I misunderstanding something fundamental here? I looked at the documentation and I can't figure out why it doesn't like this. Thanks.
Need to use a function with write or append permission:
package main
import "os"
func main() {
f, err := os.Create("file.txt")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
defer f.Close()
for range [10]struct{}{} {
f.WriteString("some text\n")
}
}
