Hello, When I try to compile this piece of code:
package main type MyString string type MyBytes []byte func GetString() (string, error) { return "", nil } func GetBytes() ([]byte, error) { return nil, nil } func main() { var s MyString var b MyBytes var err error s, err = GetString() b, err = GetBytes() } I get this error: tmp/sandbox008752331/main.go:19: cannot assign string to s (type MyString) in multiple assignment Does anyone know why implicit casting from []byte to MyBytes works, but it doesn't for string to MyString?
