How does one specify the maximum value representable for an unsigned
integer type?
I would like to know how to initialize min
in the loop below that iteratively computes min and max lengths from some structs.
var minLen uint = ???
var maxLen uint = 0
for _, thing := range sliceOfThings {
if minLen > thing.n { minLen = thing.n }
if maxLen < thing.n { maxLen = thing.n }
}
if minLen > maxLen {
// If there are no values, clamp min at 0 so that min <= max.
minLen = 0
}
so that the first time through the comparison, minLen >= n
.
