The following example shows how to use the range operator in a for loop to implement a foreach loop.

func PrintXml (out io.Writer, value interface{}) error {
    var data []byte
    var err error

    for _, action := range []func() {
        func () { data, err = xml.MarshalIndent(value, "", "  ") },
        func () { _, err = out.Write([]byte(xml.Header)) },
        func () { _, err = out.Write(data) },
        func () { _, err = out.Write([]byte("\n")) }} {
        action();
        if err != nil {
            return err
        }
    }
    return nil;
}

The example iterates over an array of functions to unify the error handling for the functions. A complete example is at Google´s playground.

PS: it shows also that hanging braces are a bad idea for the readability of code. Hint: the for condition ends just before the action() call. Obvious, isn't it?
