range over interface{} which stores a slice

by

Well I used reflect.ValueOf and then if it is a slice you can call Len() and Index() on the value to get the len of the slice and element at an index. I don’t think you will be able to use the range operate to do this.

package main

import "fmt"
import "reflect"

func main() {
    data := []string{"one","two","three"}
    test(data)
    moredata := []int{1,2,3}
    test(moredata)
} 

func test(t interface{}) {
    switch reflect.TypeOf(t).Kind() {
    case reflect.Slice:
        s := reflect.ValueOf(t)

        for i := 0; i < s.Len(); i++ {
            fmt.Println(s.Index(i))
        }
    }
}
