How to initialize array of dynamic size in go?

Question

I try to write a small application in go that takes 'x' numbers of integers from standard input, calculates the mean and gives it back. I have only gotten so far:

When trying to compile this I get the following error message:
invalid array bound elems

What is wrong here?

You should use a slice instead of an array: //var array = new([elems]int) - no, arrays are not dynamic var slice = make([]int,elems) // or slice := make([]int, elems) See "go slices usage and internals".
