Grouping related data
When a value is more than a single number — a user with a name, email and age — you want to bundle the fields together under one name. Go provides objects (or structs / records / dictionaries depending on the language) to do exactly that.
```go
type User struct {
Name string
Age int
}func (u User) Greet() string { return "Hi " + u.Name }
u := User{"Aman", 20} fmt.Println(u.Greet()) ```
Methods
Many languages let an object carry not only data but also functions ("methods") that operate on that data. This style is called object-oriented programming and is the dominant way to organise large programs.
When to make a new type
If you find yourself passing three or four related values into every function — say x, y and z of a 3-D point — that is a clear signal to introduce a new object type that holds them together. The code becomes shorter, safer and easier to extend.
