ShowColumnStripes x ShowRowStripes type

[montovaneli]

Hello! Sorry if it's a silly question, but why is the ShowRowStripes parameter of an excelize.Table of type *bool, while the ShowColumnStripes parameter is of type bool?

The row stripes were enabled by default when you add a table with the AddTable function, even if you did not specify the ShowRowStripes filed value in the excelize.Table. Because the default value of the boolean data type was false in the Go language, we used pointer data type to represent the user not set value for this field and made this field value as true by default, so we using the *bool data type for distinguish unset or set as false. The column stripes were disabled by default, so we can define the data type of the ShowColumnStripes field as boolean.
