GO Programming Language!


  


   Getting Started with GO!

    


    GO Documentation »

    


  


This repository will keep track of my GO learning experience. The entire phase is divided into 4 Weeks.

It will include my personal notes as well as Documentation snippets provided by the GO Community.

Follow along of you want to get started with Go. 

## Contents 

### Week 1:

1. ####  Why GO?

  - Fast-paving compilation and execution

  - Do away with the need of working with different subsets of languages for one project.

  - A boost to code readability and documentation

  - Offering a thoroughly consistent language

  - Facilitating easy versioning of the program

  - Allowing developing with multiple languages

  - Allowing easier maintenance of dependencies

2. #### GO vs. other High Level Languages.

3. ####  Advantages of GO!

  - [x] Concurrency Support

    - Management of multiple tasks at the same time. 

    - Solves the problems in Parallelism (i.e : Conflict in Memory, Dependent tasks, When do tasks start and stop etc. )

  - [x] Garbage Collection

    - Automatic memory management. 

    - Gives a ton of control over memory allocation. 

    - Reduces latency to 1ms. Uses algorithm of Tricolor Mark & Sweep.

  - [x] Simplicity

    - Very small language specs. 

    - [Tutorials and Docs](https://tour.golang.org/welcome/1)

  - [x] Scalability

    - Need of the hour with growing Applications.

    - Features such as Concurrency, Goroutines, Channels help in improving Scalability.

    

4. #### Setting up Develepment Environment.

  - [x] Download [Go Installer](https://golang.org/dl/)

  - [x] Verify GOPATH

### Week 2:

  - [x] Writing our first GoLang Program, i.e "Hello World".

  - [x] Variables

  - [x] Variables Initialization

  - [x] Pointers 

  - [x] Variable Scope

  - [x] Deallocating Memory

  - [x] Garbage Collection

  - [x] Comments, Printing

  - [x] Data Types : int, float, strings

  - [x] String Packages

  - [x] Control Flow, Scan()

  - [x] Assignment

  

  ### Week 3 :

  - [x] Arrays

  - [x] Slices

  - [x] Hashtables

  - [x] Maps

  - [x] Structs

  - [x] Assignment

  

  ### Week 4 :

  - [x] RFC

  - [x] JSON

  - [x] File Access - IOUtil 

  - [x] File Access - OS
