Note that if there are no read-write or write-write data races on memory location <i>x</i>,
then any read <i>r</i> on <i>x</i> has only one possible <i>W</i>(<i>r</i>):
the single <i>w</i> that immediately precedes it in the happens before order.

More generally, it can be shown that any Go program that is data-race-free,
meaning it has no program executions with read-write or write-write data races,

spaces (U+0020), horizontal tabs (U+0009),
carriage returns (U+000D), and newlines (U+000A),
is ignored except as it separates tokens
that would otherwise combine into a single token. Also, a newline or end of file
may trigger the insertion of a <a href="#Semicolons">semicolon</a>.
While breaking the input into tokens,

is the name <code>foo</code> as an address in memory.
This form is used to name global functions and data.
Adding <code>&lt;&gt;</code> to the name, as in <span style="white-space: nowrap"><code>foo&lt;&gt;(SB)</code></span>, makes the name
visible only in the current source file, like a top-level <code>static</code> declaration in a C file.
