sending an item acquires the semaphore, and receiving an item releases
the semaphore.
This is a common idiom for limiting concurrency.

<p>
This program starts a goroutine for every entry in the work list, but the
goroutines coordinate using the <code>limit</code> channel to ensure
that at most three are running work functions at a time.

<pre>
var limit = make(chan int, 3)

As of Go 1.22, <code>math/rand</code>'s top-level functions (when not explicitly seeded)
and the Go runtime also use ChaCha8 for randomness.
</ul>

<p>
We plan to include an API migration tool in a future release, likely Go 1.23.

Implementation restriction: Although numeric constants have arbitrary
precision in the language, a compiler may implement them using an
internal representation with limited precision.  That said, every
implementation must:

<ul>
	<li>Represent integer constants with at least 256 bits.</li>

	<li>Represent floating-point constants, including the parts of

If you need to use a missing instruction, there are two ways to proceed.
One is to update the assembler to support that instruction, which is straightforward
but only worthwhile if it's likely the instruction will be used again.
Instead, for simple one-off cases, it's possible to use the <code>BYTE</code>
and <code>WORD</code> directives
