A new programming language – GO, from Google
Google just published a new open source system programming language, GO. Google claims that it is simple, fast, fun, safe, and concurrent. Source code can be downloaded and compiled. It provides a lot of packages. My first look gave me feeling that it is pretty similar to Java or C#. It is a system language and compiled programs run nearly as fast as comparable C or C++ code. Since C++ is too complicated. I will definitely try this one and see if it is true for their claims.
In the language website http://golang.org/, there are a lot of information available. A nice tutorial is available. It also provide a 3-day course with a lot of useful slides.
If you want something simple and easy for system programming, it seems that this might be one of your choice.
