Salamis (mythology)

Salamis (/ˈsæləmɪs/ SAL-ə-miss; Ancient Greek: Σαλαμίς) was a nymph in Greek mythology, the daughter of the river god Asopus and Metope, daughter of the Ladon, another river god. She was carried away by Poseidon to the island which was named after her, whereupon she bore the god a son, Cychreus, who became king of the island.[1]

In some accounts, she became the mother of Saracon by Zeus.[2]

gollark: Parallel iterators would make that code clearer, actually simpler (not Go-"simpler") and less error-prone.
gollark: I don't think the way Go encourages you to write code is very good.
gollark: I had a bug because I didn't put in the `src := source` line and something something closure. I probably could have accidentally messed up the waitgroup.
gollark: Or, well, is moderately complex but can be abstracted.
gollark: Anyway, I *do* see an issue with it. It has a lot of verbosity and fiddly bits for something which is not complicated.
