	// Print to "Welcome to 6th docker meetup" stdout
	// Say about capital letter

	// Variable
	// Show with var and without var
	// show example with int and string

	// Constants
	// show Printf and Println with %v

	// For loop

	// No while loop, infinite for loop with break

	// Create new function called add which will take two parameters
	// Call function with arguments

	// Create a function called sum which will take any number of arguments
	// Call Without args
	// Call with varying args

	// Create Arrays with fixed sizes
	// Create slices  like []int{1, 2, 3} and also show make
	// [:]

	// Loop over arrays with range, say about _
	// Print them using %v

	// show hashmap with string as keys and bool as value
	// make(map[string]bool)
	// map[string]bool{"foo": true, "bar": false}
	// Iterate over the map
	// Delete the key
	// Delete is not atomic in hash map. Acquire mutex before deleting

	// Simple struct example
}

// Write func add which takes two integer arguments and returns int

// Write func sum which takes infinite number of arguments and returns int
// Show return without argument

// Write a function generateRandomNumbers which takes total numbers to produce
// and returns int channel. Use go routine to send message in the channel
// Close the channel once messages are sent

// Write a function to filter numbers divisible by 5 which takes int channel
// as an argument and returns string channel.
// Iterate over the channel using range to receive the messages.
// Close the channel after all message are sent.

	// Repeat the same problem using Go routine and sync.WaitGroup
	// var wg sync.WaitGroup

instructions.go contains all the instruction for the workshop steps as comments. The solution is under workshop.go

// Struct
type Person struct {
name string
salary float64
}

May be you can put a comment explaining the significance of upper/lower case naming convention.
i.e. Go determines whether a particular identifier is public / private within package context. When you changed the fields to be upper case, they become public so can be exported.
