# MultiChanTicker
The idea of this ticker is to multiply the output channels. The original Golang `time.Ticker` provides only a single output channel, so the signal can only be received by a single other class. This ticker allows to add multiple channels which get all notified about the time tick.
```golang
type MultiChanTicker interface {
Init(duration time.Duration)
AddChannel(chan time.Time)
}
```
The MultiChanTicker is created similarly to the common `time.Ticker`:
```golang
NewTicker(duration time.Duration) MultiChanTicker
```
Afterwards, you can add channels:
```golang
t := MultiChanTicker(duration)
c1 := make(chan time.Time)
c2 := make(chan time.Time)
t.AddChannel(c1)
t.AddChannel(c2)
for {
select {
case t1 := <- c1:
log.Print(t1)
case t2 := <- c2:
log.Print(t2)
}
}
```
The result should be the same `time.Time` output in both channels, notified "simultaneously".
