Hey Everyone,

Its been a long time since I have programmed in C++, and if I remember correctly the best way to organize classes was to create your class in the .h file, and then your implementation in your .cpp file.

Well I am trying to learn Go now and I was reading over the Go for C++ Programmers article when I came upon interfaces. The article explains that interfaces in Go essentially take the place of classes, and shows how to set them up pretty well.

What I am trying to figure out though is how should I organize an interface into files? For instance, should the interface be in one file while the implementation is in another?

myInterface.go

type myInterface interface {
    get() int
    set(i int)
}

myImplementation.go

type myType struct { i int }
func (p *myType) set(i int) { p.i = i }
func (p *myType) get() int { return p.i }

My code here may be wrong since I do not completely know what I am doing yet (and if I am wrong please correct me), but would this be the best way to set this up? Im having a very hard time trying to wrap my head around how to organize code in Go so any help is appreciated!
