Sumario: | Take the Go programming language for a test drive with this example-driven video course from software architect Mark Bates. You get a detailed introduction to several tools and techniques that lie at the core of this relatively new Google language, including concurrent programming with "go" routines. Mark also demonstrates how to build a command line application, using test-driven development. Statically typed with syntax derived from C, this easy-to-learn language includes garbage collection, type safety, and some dynamic-typing capabilities. If you’re an experienced programmer, you’ll have an exciting new language in your toolkit once you complete this video. Learn Go basics such as functions, variables, and loops Use the "testing" package in the test-driven development of Go applications Manage multiple "go" routines and coordinate the control of a concurrent Go program Understand how packages in Go applications are organized Build binaries for platforms other than the one you develop with Explore error handling, including how to gracefully recover from specific errors Use the "expvar" package to expose metrics about Go applications Manage dependency versions for your applications with the Godep tool Mark Bates is the founder and chief architect of the Boston-based consulting company, Meta42 Labs.
