Go Language
summary
Language history: started as a 20% Google project in September 2007, source drops in November 2009 and v1.0 in March 2012. Claims: native-compiled, statically typed, garbage-collected, no inheritance with implicit interfaces, concurrency built from goroutines (~6KB each), typed channels and select for message passing. Demonstrations: fast compile (400k-line standard library in ~6s), simple HTTP handlers, template rendering, concurrent fetch aggregator using goroutines + channels with a 3s timeout pattern, and tools like go fmt/go get/go test and a profiler; examples run and scale to thousands of goroutines.
