By default, channels are *unbuffered*, meaning that they have a capacity of zero and only accept puts and takes when both a putting and a taking thread are available. If a `put` is started when there is no taker thread the call will block. As soon as another thread calls `take` the exchange will occur and both calls will return on their respective threads. Similarly, is a `take` is started when there is no putting thread the call will block until another thread calls `put`.

The following, slightly more complex example, concurrently sums two different halves of a list then combines the results. It uses an unbuffered channel to pass the results from the two goroutines back to the main thread. The main thread blocks on the two `take` calls until the worker goroutines are done. This example also uses the convenience aliases {#<<} and {#~}. Since channels in Go are part of the language, channel operations are performed using special channel operators rather than functions. These operators help clearly indicate that channel operations are being performed. The operator overloads `<<` for `put` and `~` for `take` help reinforce this idea in Ruby.
