the importing and imported package.
It is illegal for a package to import itself, directly or indirectly,
or to directly import a package without
referring to any of its exported identifiers. To import a package solely for
its side-effects (initialization), use the <a href="#Blank_identifier">blank</a>
identifier as explicit package name:
</p>

<pre>
import _ "lib/math"
</pre>

interface{ ~[]byte | myString }           // bytestring
</pre>

<p>
Note that <code>bytestring</code> is not a real type; it cannot be used to declare
variables or compose other types. It exists solely to describe the behavior of some
operations that read from a sequence of bytes, which may be a byte slice or a string.
