Go: How does go run file.go work

Question

The commands go build and go install compile the files into binaries. Does go run compile or interpret the file? I couldn\'t find expl

Answer 1

The go run command compiles and runs a main package comprised of the .go files specified on the command line. The command is compiled to a temporary folder.

The go build and go install examine the files in the directory to determine which .go files are included in the main package.
