A struct literal denotes a newly allocated struct value by listing the values of its fields.

Struct Literals are the name of the struct with values in braces, in the order they are defined in the struct.
In the given example, `v1=Vertex{1,2}` creates a `v1` variable of type `Vertex` and values of
fields `X` & `Y` being `1` & `2` respectively.

You can list just a subset of fields by using the `Name:` syntax. (And the order of named fields is irrelevant.)

The special prefix `&` returns a pointer to the struct value.
