## GO

- Value receiver makes a copy of the type and pass it to the function. The function stack now holds an equal object but at a different location on memory. That means any changes done on the passed object will remain local to the method. *The original object will remain unchanged.*

- Pointer receiver passes the address of a type to the function. The function stack has a reference to the original object. So any modifications on the passed object will *modify the original object.*
