When a function in package pkg returns a value of type `pkg.Pkg` (or `*pkg.Pkg`), the function name can often omit the type name without confusion: - start := time.Now() // start is a time.Time - t, err := time.Parse(time.Kitchen, "6:06PM") // t is a time.Time + start := time.Now() // start is a time.Time + t, err := time.Parse(time.Kitchen, "6:06PM") // t is a time.Time + ctx = context.WithTimeout(ctx, 10*time.Millisecond) // ctx is a context.Context + ip, ok := userip.FromContext(ctx) // ip is a net.IP A function named `New` in package `pkg` returns a value of type `pkg.Pkg`.
