Course Description

Welcome to "Go Lang for Tourists". This course is intended to be an introductory course for anyone who would like to learn the Go Programming Language.
As the title indicates, like a tourist to a new place, this course presents the highlights of the language to those who are unfamiliar with Go.
If you already know some Go, you may be interested in "Go Lang for Adventurers" or "Go Lang for Natives".
In this course, we will be looking at the major features of Go, that makes it stand out from some of the other newer languages. For example, how does Go deal with concurrency, memory management, arrays, exception handling, and object-oriented programming, just to name a few?Who this course is for:
  • Anyone who is curious or wants to learn computer programming, but don't know where to start.

After taking this course, I am adding a bit more to my experience learning golang through these presentations. I find myself going back to some of the lectures as a reference resource in solving our real-life projects that we are working on. Veroll has a great way of dissecting hard to understand concepts. I am very thankful to him for opening the door to a different way of looking at a problem and using Go to solve it. Thank You Veroll and I hope that you will do a second part (more advanced concepts in go) to this existing class.

Very well structured, well organized, no clutter (i.e. 10 sections about installing visual studio before jumping into the actual code), starts from the beginning. Just very good so far. Give this course a **go**. ;)
