Reading Error Messages

Understanding failures

When your code has an error, Go tells you exactly where. The error message includes the filename, line number, and a description of the problem.

./main.go:7:2: undefined: Printl

This tells you: file main.go, line $7$ , column $2$ , the name Printl isn't defined. Check your spelling. It should be Println. Learning to read error messages quickly will save you hours of debugging.
