I've been wanting to get into Go for awhile now. This series sounds like the perfect way to help me get into it over time.
Anyways, fantastic part one, and I look forward to reading the rest of the series!
Thanks, I'm glad you're liking the series so far, I promise subsequent articles, would broaden your knowledge of the Go programming language.
Shouldn't you set
GOPATH
as well ?I made this year resolution to learn Go but look like I won't be achieving that, given I have 1 month left 😂 . But I'm still enjoying playing around with stuff written in Go.
This is my notes on setting up Go environment on Ubuntu, based on howistart article which I think the best getting started guide for new language you want to learn.
You're right Kamal, I think I mentioned setting up GOPATH (maybe indirectly), anyways I'm glad you chose to learn Go.
Overall, good article on getting started with Go.
I don't know that I would call ~90 pages a "few" though.
Current spec that I'm referring to; golang.org/ref/spec
Granted, it's a lot shorter than the ~1300 page monstrosity of the current C++ spec, but comparatively long next to the 60-page spec for R (which I actually think is a little lacking).
Thanks Evan
There's a typo in the post's description (Langugae -> Language).
It's visible when you share the post.
Nice post!
Thanks for pointing that out Lazarus
Minor typo: "create our source file hello.go" should be "create our source file test.go"
Thanks for pointing that out Eric 3>
