About this theme
Go strings are immutable byte sequences. There are no template literals — fmt.Sprintf does the job. A byte is an alias for uint8; a rune is int32 and represents a Unicode codepoint. When you range over a string, you get runes (codepoints), not bytes. This matters more than it sounds.
