This document provides a summary of the history and key features of the Go programming language. It discusses how Go was created in 2007 by Robert Griesemer, Ken Thompson, and Rob Pike to have efficient compilation, execution, and ease of programming. Some key syntax highlights mentioned include clean code, simple declarations, duck typing, useful data structures, decisions and looping structures, and how Go uses structs with functions instead of classes.

Why are you creating a new
language?
“One had to choose either
efficient compilation,
efficient execution, or ease
of programming; all three
were not available in the
same mainstream
language.” - Go FAQ

Principles of Go
● Simplicity
Each language feature should be easy
to understand.
● Orthogonality
Go’s features should interact in
predictable and consistent ways.
● Readability
What is written on the page should be
comprehensible with little context.
