Overflow

Explanation

This program dives deep into how Go behaves when a value goes beyond the range of its declared type i.e. an Overflow

But Go cannot catch Overflow errors in runtime

Instead, the values wraps around to the minimum negative or maximum positive depending on the type.

Cheat Sheet

SIGEND TYPES
Minimum value - 1	Max Positive
Maximum value + 1	Min Negative

Example for int8(-128 to 127)
-128 - 1	127
127 + 1	-128

UNSIGNED TYPES
Minimum value - 1	Max Positive
Maximum value + 1	Zero

Example for uint8(0 to 255)
0 - 1	255
255 + 1	0
