Discover How to Build Reliable, Scalable, High-Performance and Fault-Tolerant Programs With a Proven Approach to Learning Go Programming!

Are you a newbie to programming and are looking for the perfect language to get started with? Are you a web developer, programmer, enterprise developer or even a systems admin looking to upgrade your programming skill stack with a future-proof programming language? If your answer is yes to any of these questions, then this book is for you. Go is a language developed by Google that is designed to simple, reliable and efficient, with concurrency and portability built in. In this comprehensive introduction to Go, Nathan Metzler makes it easy for programmers like you to get started building powerful software and applications with the Go language.

There are legendary programming languages such as C and C++ which are used to build platform and architecture specific and native software applications where the emphasis is usually on performance; and then there are all purpose scripting languages such as Ruby and Python which can do just about anything ranging from simple desktop applications to complex cloud applications. While languages such as Python and Ruby are easy to learn, easy to code and offer a super wide range of functionalities and libraries as compared to C/C++, the performance is not as good as C/C++ (sorry Python fans, but it’s true!) unless there is dedicated hardware support for accelerating the applications. This is because a script is usually executed by a special software called as an interpreter which executes a script line by line where as a program written in C/C++ is compiled to generate executable code which is native to a hardware platform and then the executable code is run. Go programming language combines the performance of languages such as C/C++ and the ease of use of languages like Python.

Go programming language also known as golang or simply Go is a multi-paradigm programming language designed by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson at Google . It is a statically typed, compiled programming language that supports programming paradigms such as object oriented, functional, imperative and concurrent programming.
