go - Can I compare variable types with .(type) in Golang? -

i'm quite confused .(type) syntax interface variables. possible use this:

var a,b interface{} // code if first.(type) == second.(type) { }

or reflect.typeof() option check if underlying types of , b same type? comparison making in code above?

someinterface.(type) only used in type switches. in fact if tried run you'd see in error message.

func main() {     var a, b interface{}     = 1     b = 1      fmt.println(a.(type) == b.(type)) }

prog.go:10: use of .(type) outside type switch

what instead a.(int) == b.(int), no different int(a) == int(b)

func main() {     var a, b interface{}     = 1     b = 1      fmt.println(a.(int) == b.(int)) }

true
