// that point, the program is terminated with a non-zero exit code. This
// termination sequence is called panicking and can be controlled by the
// built-in function recover.

While programmers should write Go programs without data races,
there are limitations to what a Go implementation can do in response to a data race.
An implementation may always react to a data race by reporting the race and terminating the program.
Otherwise, each read of a single-word-sized or sub-word-sized memory location
must observe a value actually written to that location (perhaps by a concurrent executing goroutine)
and not yet overwritten.

// the bytes between the tokens. The specification of a token is
// defined by a split function of type [SplitFunc]; the default split
// function breaks the input into lines with line termination stripped. [Scanner.Split]
// functions are defined in this package for scanning a file into
// lines, bytes, UTF-8-encoded runes, and space-delimited words. The
// client may instead provide a custom split function.
