As Moore’s Law is reaching the end of its lifecycle, the need for concurrency is rising and consequently, the need for a programming language that enables effective implementation of concurrent programs is rising too. For this reason, Go has become one of the most popular languages in recent times. This course aims to provide a detailed introduction to Go for beginners. Furthermore, it also articulates how Go is different from traditional programming languages that programmers are accustomed to in order to acquaint programmers getting ready to delve into Go with the language too.

An Introduction to Programming in Go

### Comparison with Other Languages

Go has only one looping construct, the for loop.
The basic for loop looks as it does in C or Java, except that the `( )` are gone (they are not even optional) and the `{ }` are required.
As in C or Java, you can leave the pre and post statements empty.
