Go Programming Online Course

Go Programming Online Course

Go has moved from the state of tentative to mass adoption. Its C-like speed, simplicity, and power for a growing number of systems level programming domains make it an attractive option for programmers working with older cumbersome, statically typed languages.

Testprep Training Go Programming video course not only gives you a deep insight into the fundamental mechanics behind the language, but also covers extensive practical concepts on Go for modern software architectures. It shows you how to write Go in an intelligent, idiomatic way. After a brief re-acquaintance with the key building blocks of Go, you will also explore how you can build upon the unique capabilities of the language to write effective, powerful code you can employ to develop software.

At the end of this online course, you will be taught how to put this enhanced knowledge to build a real-world Spaceship application all by yourself with amazing features.
