title: Pointer to a map
body: <p>Having some maps defined as:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var valueToSomeType = map[uint8]someType{...}
  var nameToSomeType = map[string]someType{...}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I would want a variable that points to the address of the maps (to don't copy all variable). I tried it using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>valueTo := &amp;valueToSomeType
  nameTo := &amp;nameToSomeType
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but at using <code>valueTo[number]</code>, it shows<br>
  <em>internal compiler error: var without type, init: new</em></p>
  
  <p>How to get it?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit</strong>  </p>
  
  <p>The error was showed by another problem.</p>
