Go (also known as Golang) is one of the most popular languages today and is a key part of many enterprise tech stacks. Because Go's memory management architecture makes concurrency easier, many developers prefer it over traditional languages.

In this course, you will learn the core constructs and techniques of Go as well as advanced concepts of the language. In particular, you’ll learn how to program efficiently by becoming aware of the pitfalls and patterns that are commonly encountered in Go and by building your own applications.

Once you’ve completed this course, you will be able to write concurrent programs and improve the performance of existing ones, thus creating a more robust experience for everyone. Concurrency is in high demand today since it enables developers to reduce execution time of applications significantly, and Golang provides a very rich support for achieving this.

Concurrency in Go

Write a code in Golang that reads and writes the value in the map and compiles with the following error `fatal error: concurrent map read and map write`. Code the program so that it throws the error mentioned above. 

- Create two functions. One will read the value, and the other will update and write the value in a particular key.
- Create an infinite loop inside the functions. Otherwise, the Golang scheduler will complete the function before the error occurs.
- Run both the functions as a goroutine.
- Pass one parameter of type `map`.
