<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>What will you learn from this book?</b></p><p>Go makes it easy to build software that's simple, reliable, and efficient. Andthis book makes it easy for programmers like you to get started. Googledesigned Go for high-performance networking and multiprocessing, but--like Python and JavaScript--the language is easy to read and use. With thispractical hands-on guide, you'll learn how to write Go code using clearexamples that demonstrate the language in action. Best of all, you'll understandthe conventions and techniques that employers want entry-level Godevelopers to know.</p><p><b>Why does this book look so different?</b></p><p>Based on the latest research in cognitive science and learning theory, HeadFirst Go uses a visually rich format to engage your mind rather than a textheavyapproach that puts you to sleep. Why waste your time struggling withnew concepts? This multisensory learning experience is designed for theway your brain really works.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Jay McGavren was doing automation for a hotel services company when a colleague introduced him to Programming Perl (a.k.a. the Camel Book). It made him an instant Perl convert, as he liked actually writing code instead of waiting for a 10-person development team to configure a build system. It also gave him the crazy idea to write a technical book someday.</p><p>In 2007, with Perl sputtering, Jay was looking for a new interpreted language. With its strong object-orientation, excellent library support, and incredible flexibility, Ruby immediately won him over. He's since used Ruby for two game libraries, a generative art project, in support of a Java development job, and as a Ruby on Railsfreelancer. He's been using Rails in the online developer education space since 2011.</p>
