I’ve only picked up Go recently and I must say that the beginner experience is superb. Way easier to get started, learn new concepts and put them in use compared to some other languages.
- 0x008 5y agocan you recommend any video lectures?
- squegles 5y agoI suggest running through each example at https://gobyexample.com https://gobyexample.com This personally helped me build a good foundation on Golang.
- JimiofEden 5y agoSo it's not a video lecture on Go specifically, but I first started learning itbecause I saw how it looked and how fast it ran while watching a Dynamic Programming series that happened to use Go for its implementations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTjRGe0wRvI&list=PLVrpF4r7WIhTT1hJqZmjP10nxsmrbRvlf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTjRGe0wRvI&list=PLVrpF4r7WI... From there, I started reading about it more seriously here: https://golangbot.com/learn-golang-series/ https://golangbot.com/learn-golang-series/ And I've been using it and loving it ever since. There are one or two things that trip me up (slice manipulation can sometimes get me if I'm not paying close attention to my capacity and just pointing around, rather than copying) But for the most part, it's a fairly elegant language, and amazingly fast! For me, it's also been incredibly intuitive start working on asynchronous features. The new inclusion of Generics is just icing on the cake.
