Go, or Golang, is an open-source programming language designed by three Google engineers in 2007 and officially released two years later in 2009.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Go programming language has been growing rapidly, and its number of fans is increasing every day. In this article, we want to introduce you to this programming language and discuss its advantages and disadvantages for projects.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Introduction to the Go programming language<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

The GO programming language looks exactly like the C language and is just as suitable for highly professional programmers. This language provides you with maximum performance with minimal tools. But it must be said that this language is much more than an updated version of C!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This language has new and efficient features and is fully capable of data abstraction (Data Abstraction) and object-oriented (Object-oriented) programming. It is also equipped with an automatic memory management system, or Garbage Collection. As you know, manual memory management takes a lot of time and energy from programmers, but with this wonderful system, you can save time and money. In addition to this feature, this language has no concepts such as constructors, generic lists, or exceptions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Go does not support inheritance, and this feature makes it easier to edit code. For example, in other languages, such as Java or Python, if a class named ABC inherits from another class called XYZ, and you are going to make a change in the XYZ class, these changes must be in the classes that inherit from this class. Apply. Therefore, it can be said that removing the inheritance feature has made the Go language better understood.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Given these features, the GO language is suitable for infrastructure development, such as network server programming, and also provides the tools and systems programmers need. It is also known as a versatile language for use in graphics, mobile applications, and even artificial intelligence.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The popularity of this language began when it was considered an alternative to unconventional scripting languages because it had more security, higher speed, and fewer bugs and errors. As we said, GO is an open-source language, so reference codes are available to developers for free. In addition, if a program is written in the environment of a Golang-supported operating system, it can be easily run on other supported operating systems without any modifications.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

History of the origin of the GO programming language<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

It is interesting to note that some people refer to the Go language as the “21st century C language” because the GO language inherited its structure, data type, valuation parameters, and even markers from the C language. The image below will help you fully understand the evolution of the GO programming language.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
