In C, a function argument written as a fixed size array
actually requires a pointer to the first element of the array.
C compilers are aware of this calling convention and adjust
the call accordingly, but Go cannot. In Go, you must pass

<code>byte</code>, which is an <a href="#Alias_declarations">alias</a> for <code>uint8</code>, and
<code>rune</code>, which is an alias for <code>int32</code>.
Explicit conversions
are required when different numeric types are mixed in an expression
or assignment. For instance, <code>int32</code> and <code>int</code>
are not the same type even though they may have the same size on a
particular architecture.

These modes accept only 1, 2, 4, and 8 as scale factors.
</li>

</ul>

<p>
When using the compiler and assembler's
<code>-dynlink</code> or <code>-shared</code> modes,
any load or store of a fixed memory location such as a global variable
must be assumed to overwrite <code>CX</code>.
Therefore, to be safe for use with these modes,
assembly sources should typically avoid CX except between memory references.

become eligible for garbage collection immediately, even if their
`Stop` methods have not been called.
Earlier versions of Go did not collect unstopped `Timer`s until after
they had fired and never collected unstopped `Ticker`s.

Second, the timer channel associated with a `Timer` or `Ticker` is
now unbuffered, with capacity 0.
The main effect of this change is that Go now guarantees

			x[i] = ' '
		} else {
			x[i] = 'x'
		}
	}
	return x
}
