The operator ^ for exponentiation or for excluding: how not to confuse them?

submitted by CodiUnicorn to golang 3 points | 0 comments https://pvs-studio.com/en/blog/posts/go/1350/ Gophers, hey. Confusing ^ with exponentiation instead of XOR in Go seems like a pretty easy mistake to make. The bug itself is simple, but it still shows up even in some well-known projects with large codebases. How often does this happen in your code?
