Hi everyone,
New to Go and going through the gobyexample.com exercises.
Got to the Defer exercise that involves creating a file in order to defer its closure.
For some reason I am unable to create properly and see this error:
The system cannot find the path specified
I’m using Go 1.7.4 on Windows 10 (64 bit) operating system.
Please advise,
Thanks!
Hey @eigen,
The problem is probably that you are trying to create a file in the /tmp directory, which is common in unix based systems, but doesn’t exists on Windows systems.
Try replacing /tmp/defer.txt to something like defer.txt and the file should be created in the same directory where you run your code.
That worked !
Thanks for the help and thorough explanation !
No worries 
Happy coding
