I was perusing the NET library web page today.

1) Are the packages listed in any particular order?

2) What is the hierarchy? e.g., which functions correspond to the low level Unix network calls, 
     then there must be some higher level convenience functions. Is there a list of how the functions are ordered?

Thanks,

Joe

The types and functions are listed alphabetically.

The overall package description at the top of
https://golang.org/pkg/net is intended to describe the higher level
functions, which are Dial and Listen.
