Re: [go-nuts] Are receivers from a channel fifo?

It can, in theory, but it gets incredibly unlikely very very quickly. For example, if you'd have 100 goroutines reading from a channel and you write 100 values to it, the chances of one particular goroutine to read is around 63%. If you write 1000, the chance is 99.996%. So as long as the ratio of

No, that's why there is a uniform randomness even in the language spec: https://golang.org/ref/spec#Select_statements -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email

No. See what a select statement says about order when multiple cases are choosable: not defined, and the implementation guarantees uniform randomness -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiv

If I have multiple goroutines reading from a channel are they guaranteed to be FIFO i.e. is the handler that requested the read first guaranteed to get the first value, second to get the second and so on? Regards Steve -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Goog
