About the Course

Learn the basics of Go, an open source programming language originally developed by a team at Google and enhanced by many contributors from the open source community. This course is designed for individuals with previous programming experience using such languages as C, Python, or Java, and covers the fundamental elements of Go. Topics include data types, protocols, formats, and writing code that incorporates RFCs and JSON. Most importantly, you’ll have a chance to practice writing Go programs and receive feedback from your peers. Upon completing this course, you'll be able to implement simple Go programs, which will prepare you for subsequent study at a more advanced level....

It's wonderful Course to get started with Golang. Assignments and Quiz are extremely helpful to practice and enhance the knowledge. I strongly recommend to enrol this course.

Not a bad course, not a course for beginners in programming, so the basics are skipped, and more is told about the features of Go. Although, in my opinion, some points could have been shortened.
