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

## Converting Values

In the previous lesson, we covered the various types a variable in Go can take. Now, we will discuss how the type of a given variable can be changed. Converting values from one type to another is fairly simple in Go. The expression `T(v)` converts the value `v` to the type `T`.

## Example

Given below are some example numeric conversions:
