Go language use
The Go language is designed as a system programming language for giant central servers with Web servers, storage clusters, or similar purposes.
The Go language is undoubtedly more efficient to develop than most other languages in the field of high-performance distributed systems. It provides a huge amount of parallel support, which is great for game service development.
The first Go program
Let's write the first Go program, hello.go (the extension of the Go language source file is .go), and the code is as follows:
package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("Hello, World!")
}
Execute the above code output
$ go run hello.go Hello, World!
