 | Master language syntax |
| Master specific concepts and mechanisms: error handling, interfaces, parallelism, etc. |
| Understand and use the main standard libraries: io, network communication |
| Using a development environment |
Intended audience
Programmers. Development-oriented project managers.
Prerequisites
Notions of programming. Experience of object-oriented programming would be appreciated.
Practical details
Hands-on work
Theoretical sequences alternate with practical work.
Teaching methods
The exercises illustrate all the elements of the language. They include an analysis/design phase, followed by a programming phase. They are carried out using a simple IDE.
Course schedule
1 The Go environment
- Main commands (go, gofmt, godoc).
- Unit tests and benchmarks.
- Some IDEs.
Hands-on work
Get to grips with the development environment.
2 Basic language constructs
- Compilation units, packages and modules: class visibility control, import mechanism.
- Variables (different forms of declaration), primitive types.
- Control instructions: conditional, loop and branch instructions.
- Functions (multiple returns, variadic functions, anonymous functions).
- Pointers.
Hands-on work
A series of exercises illustrating the constructions presented.
3 More advanced language constructs
- Tables, slides, structs and maps.
- The range iterator.
- Methods.
- Interfaces.
- Error handling (panic, recover).
- The deferred functions.
- The iota construction.
Hands-on work
A series of exercises using the constructions presented.
4 Parallelism programming
- Basic concepts and corresponding instructions (threads, goroutines, channels and select).
- Parallelism vs. competition.
- Managing competition: locks and barriers.
Hands-on work
Building a multithreaded application.
5 Some packages and libraries
- File system management.
- Simple input/output.
- Network communication classes.
- Reflection (concepts and associated package).
Hands-on work
Building a small application using reflection and communication.
6 Supplements
- Unit testing.
- Benchmarks.
Hands-on work
Perform a set of unit tests and performance measurements on a simple application.

The trainer was extremely knowledgeable on the subject and very effective in his teaching approach. However, I was slightly disappointed with the exercises, which required a sound understanding of object-oriented development concepts far too early on to be completed successfully.

Practical exercises are an effective way of practising the content presented during the theoretical part of the course. Concrete examples are given independently of the training materials, practical exercises or theoretical presentations to illustrate unclear points.
