How do I use the SELECT statement in Go?

Can you explain how to use the SELECT statement in Go?

Sure! The SELECT statement in Go is used to query data from a database. You typically use it with the database/sql package.

What does a basic SELECT statement look like in Go?

A basic SELECT statement in Go would look like this: rows, err := db.Query("SELECT * FROM users"). You then handle the rows returned.

How do I handle the results from the SELECT statement?

You can use a loop to iterate over the rows. For example: for rows.Next() { ... } to process each row.

Can you show me a complete example?

Absolutely! Here's a simple example:

rows, err := db.Query("SELECT id, name FROM users")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
defer rows.Close()

for rows.Next() {
    var id int
    var name string
    if err := rows.Scan(&id, &name); err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    fmt.Println(id, name)
}
