Code repeater code coach - go

Question

//My code so far:
package main
import "fmt"

func main() {
var w string
fmt.Scanln(&w)
var x int
fmt.Scanln(&x)
func repeat() {
for (i=1; i <=x; i++ ){
fmt.Println(w, x)
}
}

Does not work what is wrong with my code?

Answer 1

1. Try formatting your code so it is a bit easier to read and match your opening and closing curly braces, parenthesis, brackets etc.
2. You're missing the closing curly brace for the main function.
3. The repeat function should be outside and above the main function.
4. The repeat function should have the parameters for the arguments that you wish to pass in to the function and use within the body of the function.
5. The for loop doesn't use parenthesis () when initializing it.
6. The i variable should be declared and initialized using the := operator not just =.
7. Don't forget to call the repeat function, passing the needed arguments to it.

Answer 2

package main
import "fmt"
func repeat(string w, string x)
{
for (i:=1;x;i++){
fmt.Println(w,x)
}
}

func main() {
var w string
fmt.Scanln(&w)
var x int
fmt.Scanln(&x)

repeat(w, x)

package main
import "fmt"
func repeat(string w, string x)
{
for (i=1;x;i++){
fmt.Println(w,x)
}
}

func main() {
var w string
fmt.Scanln(&w)
var x int
fmt.Scanln(&x)

repeat(w, x)
}

It is still not working.
