Golang Set Data Structure Question

Does golang have the plan for supporting set datastructure? This feature can be implemented with 'map'. countrySet := map[string]bool{ "US": true, "JP": true, "KR": true, } But to ease the eyes of readers, 'set' is a necessary data structure. countrySet := set[string]{"US", "JP", "KR"} Does golang have the plan for supporting syntax like this? dictionary go set No, Go will never support this, as it doesn't make sense. There's no way to know what the value should be without providing it. But in future, if you want to know what's planned for Go, or suggest your own ideas, just visit the Go issue tracker.

A screenshot of a Stack Overflow question about whether Go will support a native set data structure. The joke is that the proposed syntax is presented as obvious and helpful, but the answer dismisses it as nonsensical because Go requires explicit values, poking fun at feature requests and Go's design philosophy.
