Questions relating to Google's Go Programming Language project.

Go, also known as golang, is a programming language initially developed at Google in 2007 by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson.

It is a statically-typed language with syntax loosely derived from that of C, adding garbage collected memory management, type safety, some dynamic-typing capabilities, additional built-in types such as variable-length arrays and key-value maps, and a large standard library. It is heavily influenced by C, Limbo, Modula, Newsqueak, Oberon, Pascal & Python.
