@@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ For other languages there are many variables when it comes to writing code, ever
So to mitigate all the problems that Google faced with the current tools, they wrote a systems language called Go, which you are about to learn! There are many advantages to using golang, and there might be disadvantages too for every coin has both sides. But significant improvements in places like code formatting, since they designed the language in such a way that there won't be wars on how to format code, the gocode written by anyone in the world (assuming they know and use `gofmt`) will look exactly the same, this won't seem to matter until you work in a team! also when the company uses automated code review or some other fancy technique then in other languages which don't have strict and standard formatting rules then the code might get screwed up, but not in go!
Go was designed with concurrency in mind, please note that parallelism != concurrency, there is an amazing post by Rob Pike on the golang blog, [www.blog.golang.org](https://blog.golang.org/concurrency-is-not-parallelism), you will find it there, it is worth a read.

Another very important change that go has brought in programming that I personally love is the concept of `GOPATH`, gone are the days when you had to create a folder called `code` and then create workspaces for eclipse and what not, now you have to keep one folder tree for go code and it'll be updated by the package manager automatically. Also under the code we are recommended to create folders with either a custom domain or the github domain, for example I created a task manager using golang so I created a set of folders
`~/go/src/github.com/thewhitetulip/Tasks` note: In *nix systems `~` stands for home directory, which is the windows equivalent of `C:\\Users\\username`
