What is Go?
Go is a programming language launched by Google in 2009. The language is intended to be a simple, efficient and robust alternative to existing languages such as C and Java. Go has a garbage collector, type inference, memory safety and concurrent programming. These properties make it suitable for the development of large systems. Compared to other languages, Go has several advantages. On the one hand, it is a very easy language to learn, on the other hand, it is very efficient and robust. Go is also one of the few languages that has built-in support for concurrent programming. - A built-in package management system that makes it easy to manage and share code. - A built-in test system that makes it easy to write and run tests. - A built-in queuing system that makes it easy to run code on multiple processors. Go is a very flexible language and can be used for many different types of applications. It is usually the first choice for developers who want to create fast and efficient applications.
