For those of you at linux.conf.au, Andrew Gerrand and his trusty sidekick (me) will be presenting a tour of the Go programming language on Thursday afternoon.
For those of you who aren’t at linux.conf.au, you can still get a taste of the language straight from the homepage at golang.org. Try the Concurrent Prime Sieve example for concurrent programming in the style of Hoare’s CSP, rather than with threads and locks.
