Learning Go Programming: An insightful guide to learning the Go programming language

• [*]Insightful coverage of Go programming syntax, constructs, and idioms to help you understand Go code effectively
• [*]Push your Go skills, with topics such as, data types, channels, concurrency, object-oriented Go, testing, and network programming
• [*]Each chapter provides working code samples that are designed to help reader quickly understand respective topic

• [*]Install and configure the Go development environment to quickly get started with your first program.
• [*]Use the basic elements of the language including source code structure, variables, constants, and control flow primitives to quickly get started with Go
• [*]Gain practical insight into the use of Go s type system including basic and composite types such as maps, slices, and structs.
• [*]Use interface types and techniques such as embedding to create idiomatic object-oriented programs in Go.
• [*]Develop effective functions that are encapsulated in well-organized package structures with support for error handling and panic recovery.
• [*]Implement goroutine, channels, and other concurrency primitives to write highly-concurrent and safe Go code
• [*]Write tested and benchmarked code using Go's built test tools
• [*]Access OS resources by calling C libraries and interact with program environment at runtime

If you have prior exposure to programming and are interested in learning the Go programming language, this book is designed for you. It will quickly run you through the basics of programming to let you exploit a number of features offered by Go programming language.
