Go by Example: Variadic Functions [proxy]

Variadic functions can be called with any number of trailing arguments. For example, fmt.Println is a common variadic function.

package main

import "fmt"

Here’s a function that will take an arbitrary number of ints as arguments.

func sum(nums ...int) {
    fmt.Print(nums, " ")
    total := 0
    for _, num := range nums {
        total += num
    }
    fmt.Println(total)
}

func main() {

Variadic functions can be called in the usual way with individual arguments.

    sum(1, 2)
    sum(1, 2, 3)

If you already have multiple args in a slice, apply them to a variadic function using func(slice...) like this.

    nums := []int{1, 2, 3, 4}
    sum(nums...)
}
