Go

Go is a statically typed, compiled programming language designed at Google by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson. It is syntactically similar to C, but with memory safety, garbage collection, and structural typing.

Before we dive into how Go works I want to point out some useful resources. First off I personally think this is the best guide for learning Go. I also wanted to take the time to link to go.dev the homepage of Go and specifically the Playground where you can access a live Go environment where you can look at example, write, and run Go programs.

With that out of the way let's go over some go concepts.
