 The Go Programming Language



 Go (aka golang) is a statically typed and compiled open source
programming language.It was initially developed at Google by Robert
Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson to create a language for modern
systems programming that solved real world problems they encountered
while building large systems at scale.It also developed into a very
good general programming language.



 Bill will be giving an overview of the Go programming language and
its many benefits.





 Bill Allie has been working with computers and in I.T. since the
early 1970s.He has work with micro-computers (8080, Z80), mini-
computers (General Automation, DEC PDP-11), mainframes (although he
disavows and knowledge of them).He has worked as a programmer (BASIC,
FORTRAN, many different assemblers, PL-1, COBOL, Java, C, Python, USCD
Pascal, golang) and as a System Administrator for UNIX based systems
