General Code Improvements

[4cecoder]

1. Code Readability and Structure:

   • Ensure that your code is well-commented, especially for complex functions and logic.
   • Follow Go naming conventions for variables, functions, and packages.
   • Use consistent formatting throughout your codebase. Consider using gofmt to automatically format your code.

2. Error Handling:

   • Make sure to handle errors appropriately. Avoid ignoring errors returned by functions.
   • Use custom error types where applicable to provide more context.

3. Performance Optimizations:

   • Profile your code to identify any performance bottlenecks.
   • Optimize loops and recursive functions where possible.
   • Use efficient data structures and algorithms.

4. Adherence to Go Best Practices:

   • Follow Go idioms and best practices as outlined in the Effective Go guide.
   • Ensure that your code is idiomatic and leverages Go's features effectively.

5. Documentation:

   • Update your README.md to provide clear instructions on how to build, test, and run your project.
   • Ensure that all public functions and types are documented using GoDoc comments.
