gogopher google Go programming language

Google has released a new programming language called Go. Google says that Go combines the performance and safety of a compiled language like C or C++ with the speed of a dynamic language like Python. Of couse, Go is open sourced, its official website is Golang.org.

Here is the official description of Go from Google:

Go attempts to combine the development speed of working in a dynamic language like Python with the performance and safety of a compiled language like C or C++. In our experiments with Go to date, typical builds feel instantaneous; even large binaries compile in just a few seconds. And the compiled code runs close to the speed of C. Go is designed to let you move fast.

We’re hoping Go turns out to be a great language for systems programming with support for multi-processing and a fresh and lightweight take on object-oriented design, with some cool features like true closures and reflection.
