Goroutine sleep and deadlock in code. How to solve it?

Question

I am trying to execute this code. It throws a deadlock error.

What am I missing?

package main

import \"t

So I did this by by sending in a flag into the Walk function. This way it knows when it can close down the channel. I also think it's important to walk the tree in the right order Left node, Value, Right node.

package main

import (
  "fmt"
  "tour/tree"
)

// Walk walks the tree t sending all values
// from the tree to the channel ch.
func Walk(t *tree.Tree, c chan int, d bool) {
  if t.Left != nil {
    Walk(t.Left, c, false)
  } 
  c <- t.Value

  if t.Right != nil {
    Walk(t.Right, c, false)
  }
  if d {
    close(c)
  }
}

// Same determines whether the trees
// t1 and t2 contain the same values.
func Same(t1, t2 *tree.Tree) bool {
  ch1 := make(chan int)
  ch2 := make(chan int)
  go Walk(t1, ch1, true)
  go Walk(t2, ch2, true)
  for {
    v1, ok1 := <-ch1
    v2, ok2 := <-ch2

    if v1 != v2 {
      return false
    }
    if ok1 != ok2 {
      return false
    } 
    if !ok1 && !ok2 {
      return true
    }
  }
  return false
}
func main() {
  ch := make(chan int)
  go Walk(tree.New(1), ch, true)

  for i := range ch {
    fmt.Println(i)
  } 

  test1 := Same(tree.New(1), tree.New(1))
  test2 := Same(tree.New(1), tree.New(2))

  fmt.Println(test1, test2)
}
