Objectives

Reflect on Go’s strengths and weaknesses.

Due Date

Monday of finals week.

Tasks

  1. Write a brief (1–2 page, single-spaced, font size ≤ 12 point) essay summarizing your thoughts on the strengths and weaknesses of Go. Be sure to address the types of projects for which you think Go would be good and the types where Go might be a poor fit.

    Go is a young language. If you don’t think that it’s is ready for production use yet, then you might also consider what would have to change to make it so.
