Hello community :)

I was going through the golang documentation on the `make` function here - https://golang.org/pkg/builtin/#pkg-constants.

I think the line "The specification of the result depends on the type:" should instead be "The specification of the size depends on the type:". (Changed result to size).

Do you feel the same way?

If so, I'd love to contribute to the change. Would this have to be via a PR to golang, or is there another place for the docs change?

Thanks a lot!

It's not just the size, though, it's also what kind of thing gets made. I think it's better as is.
