You will see how Go:
simplifies programming with slices, maps, structs and interfaces
incorporates functional programming
makes error-handling easy and secure
simplifies concurrent and parallel programming with goroutines and channels
And you will learn how to:
make use of Gos excellent standard library
program Go the idiomatic way using patterns and best practices in over 225 working examples and 135 exercises
