cs50GO

This project is a mirror to Harvard's CS50 course, answering all psets in Go instead of C. A project just for my own understanding of Go and programming in general.

#First Instructions for starting a Go Project:

• install the latest stable version of Go, golang.org has the download and good installation instructions
• Go folder structure is into what is called a GOPATH, you can find out more about setting up your Go files here: https://golang.org/doc/code.html. You can also copy the file structure I use in this project.
• Once you have your files set up, make a simple file in your src folder (like "hello.go") and put a very simple program in it (or copy my hello.go)
• In your terminal run: go run hello.go (or whatever you named your file)
• If it returns your message, (or the simple hello world message if you use my example), you are good to go....pun intented?

Now that we have a good start with Go and a place to work, I will continue following the CS50 course assignments in Go. Assignments will probably have a similarly named .md file to go with them, explaining the assignment and lessons learned or interesting contrasts between the assignment as done in C and in Go.

cs50go's Issues

(week 2)Vigenere.go accepts all parameters

Vigenere.go should not accept these parameters:

• no command line argument (os.Args[1] empty)
• too many command line arguments (more than one key word)
• numbers in the key word

...right now it does.

Initials array in initials.go

An array should be used to hold all initials and then printed at the end of the program. Currently the program works by printing out each individual initial separately.

Add error check to user input in initials.go

The program should throw an error if the user inputs a number
