Go Environment

Go is a fast-compiled, garbage-collected, concurrent systems programming language. It has the following advantages:

• Compiles a large project within a few seconds.

• Provides a software development model that is easy to reason about, avoiding most of the problems associated with C-style header files.

• Is a static language that does not have levels in its type system, so users do not need to spend much time dealing with relations between types. It is more like a lightweight object-oriented language.

• Performs garbage collection. It provides basic support for concurrency and communication.

• Designed for multi-core computers.

Go is a compiled language. It combines the development efficiency of interpreted or dynamic languages with the security of static languages. It is going to be the language of choice for modern, multi-core computers with networking.

For these purposes, there are some problems that need to inherently be resolved at the level of the language of choice, such as a richly expressive lightweight type system, a native concurrency model, and strictly regulated garbage collection.
