How will the contents of the slice change after applying the sort.ints function in Go?

Answer from AI

The sort.Ints function from the sort package in Go sorts a slice of integers in-place. This means that the original slice is modified, and after calling the function, its elements will be ordered in ascending order.

Example:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"sort"
)

func main() {
	numbers := []int{5, 3, 4, 1, 2}
	sort.Ints(numbers)
	fmt.Println(numbers) // Will output: [1 2 3 4 5]
}

Thus, after applying sort.Ints, the contents of the slice become sorted, and the slice itself is not copied but modified directly.
