Preface Go was created by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson at Google in 2007. This book is a reference to the Go programming language. It describes all the elements of the language and illustrates their use with code examples. Agus Kurniawan Berlin & Depok, February 2015

1. Development Environment This chapter explains introduction of Go. The official web of Go could be found on https://golang.org/. What is Go? Based on information from website, we could know what it is. Go is an open source programming language that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.

1.1 Installation Installation of Go application is easy. For Windows and Mac Platform, you download setup file from Go website, http://golang.org/doc/install. Run it and follow installation commands. The next step is to configure GOROOT path. For Windows platform, you can add GOROOT variable on Environment Variables. For Mac/Linux, you can it on your bash profile.

For Windows platform, you can add GO installation path, for instance my Go installation path is c:/go/bin, into PATH variable on Environment Variables.

After configured, you can verify Go version by typing this command on your Terminal or CMD for Windows. $ go version A sample output can be seen in Figure below, Mac platform.

The output of program on Windows platform.

1.2 Development Tools Basically, you can use any text editor to write Go code. The following is a list of text editor: vim nano Intellij IDEA, https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/ Sublime text, http://www.sublimetext.com/ A sample screenshot for Intellij IDEA is shown in Figure below.

1.3 Hello World How to get started with Go? well, it is easy. Firstly, create a folder, called hello. $ mkdir hello $ cd hello Then, create a file, called main.go, on the hello folder. Write this code for main.go file. package main import "fmt" func main() { fmt.Println("Hello, go!") } Save this file. Then, back to your Terminal. You can build and run it. $ go build $ go run main.go In this case, it will generate an executable file based on your platform. A sample program output can be seen in Figure below.

1.4 Go Packages There are a lot of Go packages that you can use. The list of Go packages can seen on this link https://golang.org/pkg/. In this book, we will explore some Go standard packages. We also try to build own Go package.

2. Go Programming Language This chapter explains the basic of Go programming language.

2.1 Common Rule Go language uses “C family” as primary language but we don’t write “;” at the end of syntax. Here is the syntax rule: syntax_code1 syntax_code2 syntax_code3

2.2 Variables In this section, we explore how to define a variable and assign its value. 2.2.1 Declaring Variable To declare a variable called myvar and data type is data_type1, you can write the following script: var myvar data_type1 The following is a sample script to declare some variables. var str string var n, m int var mn float32 We also can define multiple variables as follows. var ( name string email string age int ) Once declared, these variables can be used to store any type data. 2.2.2 Assigning Variables Variable that you already declare can be assigned by a value. It can done using the equals sign (=). For example, variable str will assign a string value “Hello World”, you would write this: str = "Hello World" n = 10 m = 50 mn = 2.45 We also can declare a variable and assign its value. var city string = "London" var x int = 100
