c:windows)
PATH => $GOROOTbin
GOPATH => $GOROOT;(Add other library folders
separated by ;)
17. What are Structs ?
Collection of fields
Similar concept to classes in Object oriented languages
18. What are structs ?
Structs can also have functions just like classes.
19. Concurrency
Go Lang provides the easiest way to create a new
thread.
using the go construct before the function executes
the function in a new thread. These are referred to as
Go-Routines.
20. Channels
Channels are the pipes that connect concurrent
goroutines. You can send values into channels from one
goroutine and receive those values into another
goroutine.
21. Channels
We pass an object to channel by using <- operator on
the right side. Similarly, using the <- operator on the
left side of the channel will read off of it.
22. Compilation/Deployment
Go code can be compiled into binary code and does
not need Go enviroment to run
Simply running “go install script.go” will create a
binary file of the same name(without .go) extension in
the GO_BIN directory.
