Go Data Structures: A Deep Dive into Memory Layout

This post provides a detailed explanation of the memory layout of basic data types, structs, arrays, and slices in Go. Using illustrative diagrams, it clearly shows how various data types are represented in memory, including ints, floats, arrays, structs, and pointers. The article also specifically explains the underlying implementation of strings and slices in Go, as well as the differences between the `new` and `make` functions. This helps readers better understand the mechanisms behind Go's efficiency and gain a deeper understanding of Go's memory management.
