188 // equal to its length. A second integer argument may be provided to

192 // backed by this underlying array.
193 // Map: An empty map is allocated with enough space to hold the
194 // specified number of elements. The size may be omitted, in which case
195 // a small starting size is allocated.

237 // execution and running any deferred functions. This continues until all
238 // functions in the executing goroutine have stopped, in reverse order. At

247 // by restoring normal execution and retrieves the error value passed to the
248 // call of panic. If recover is called outside the deferred function it will
249 // not stop a panicking sequence. In this case, or when the goroutine is not
