Google programming language

Google has invented a new programming language designed to reduce the complexity of coding without compromising the performance of applications.

Called Go, the language has been tested internally at Google but is still at an experimental stage, so the company is releasing it Tuesday as open-source code in the hope that it will get help with its future development.

“We developed Go because we had become a bit frustrated with how difficult software development has become in the last 10 years or so,” said Rob Pike, principal software engineer at Google.

Conclusion

I’ve just read through the Go language in their tutorial, it looks almost exactly like C programming , the few differences are the placement of the data type, you have to declare the name first followed by the data type which it looks very objective-C and actionscripts alike.According to Go features tutorials, Go has also claim their language would be as fast as C and C++, many of their features are also very similar to most languages that are currently in the market. What so special about Go is their capability of writing shorter codes which nearly identical to C/C++ while the garbage collector would handle the memory management.
