The Go Programming Language

Go (aka golang) is a statically typed and compiled open source programming language.It was initially developed at Google by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson to create a language for modern systems programming that solved real world problems they encountered while building large systems at scale.It also developed into a very good general programming language.

Bill will be giving an overview of the Go programming language and its many benefits.
