<ul>
<li>Safety: <a href="/wiki/Type-safe" title="Type-safe" class="mw-redirect">Type-safe</a> and <a href="/wiki/Memory_safety" title="Memory safety">memory-safe</a>.</li>

<p>The <a href="/wiki/Syntax_(programming_languages)" title="Syntax (programming languages)">syntax</a> of Go is broadly similar to that of <a href="/wiki/C_(programming_language)" title="C (programming language)">C</a>: blocks of code are surrounded with <a href="/wiki/Curly_brace" title="Curly brace" class="mw-redirect">curly braces</a>; common <a href="/wiki/Control_flow" title="Control flow">control flow</a> structures include <code><a href="/wiki/For_loop" title="For loop">for</a></code>, <code><a href="/wiki/Switch_statement" title="Switch statement">switch</a></code>, and <code><a href="/wiki/Conditional_(programming)" title="Conditional (programming)">if</a></code>. Unlike C, line-ending semicolons are optional, variable declarations are written differently and are usually optional, type conversions must be made explicit, and new <code>go</code> and <code>select</code> control keywords have been introduced to support concurrent programming. New built-in types include maps, Unicode strings, array slices, and channels for inter-thread communication.</p>

<p>Go allows a programmer to write functions that can operate on inputs of arbitrary type, provided that the type implements the functions defined by a given interface.</p>
<p>Unlike <a href="/wiki/Java_(programming_language)" title="Java (programming language)">Java</a>, the interfaces a type supports do not need to be specified at the point at which the type is defined, and Go interfaces do not participate in a type hierarchy. A Go interface is best described as a set of methods, each identified by a name and signature. A type is considered to implement an interface if all the required methods have been defined for that type. An interface can be declared to "embed" other interfaces, meaning the declared interface includes the methods defined in the other interfaces.<sup id="cite_ref-memmodel_10-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-memmodel-10"><span>[</span>11<span>]</span></a></sup></p>
<p>Unlike Java, the in-memory representation of an object does not contain a pointer to a <a href="/wiki/Virtual_method_table" title="Virtual method table">virtual method table</a>. Instead a value of interface type is implemented as a pair of a pointer to the object, and a pointer to a dictionary containing implementations of the interface methods for that type.</p>
<p>Consider the following example:</p>
<div dir="ltr" class="mw-geshi mw-code mw-content-ltr">
<div class="go source-go">
<pre class="de1">
<span class="kw1">type</span> Sequence <span class="sy1">[]</span><span class="kw4">int</span>
<span class="kw4">func</span> <span class="sy1">(</span>s Sequence<span class="sy1">)</span> Len<span class="sy1">()</span> <span class="kw4">int</span> <span class="sy1">{</span>
<span class="kw1">return</span> <span class="kw3">len</span><span class="sy1">(</span>s<span class="sy1">)</span>
<span class="sy1">}</span>
<span class="kw1">type</span> HasLength <span class="kw4">interface</span> <span class="sy1">{</span>
Len<span class="sy1">()</span> <span class="kw4">int</span>
<span class="sy1">}</span>
<span class="kw4">func</span> Foo <span class="sy1">(</span>o HasLength<span class="sy1">)</span> <span class="sy1">{</span>
<span class="sy4">...</span>
<span class="sy1">}</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>These four definitions could have been placed in separate files, in different parts of the program. Notably, the programmer who defined the <code>Sequence</code> type did not need to declare that the type implemented <code>HasLength</code>, and the person who implemented the <code>Len</code> method for <code>Sequence</code> did not need to specify that this method was part of <code>HasLength</code>.</p>

<p>Go provides <i>goroutines</i>, small lightweight threads; the name alludes to <a href="/wiki/Coroutine" title="Coroutine">coroutines</a>. Goroutines are created with the <code>go</code> statement from anonymous or named functions.</p>
<p>Goroutines are executed in parallel with other goroutines, including their caller. They do not necessarily run in separate threads, but a group of goroutines are multiplexed onto multiple threads — execution control is moved between them by blocking them when sending or receiving messages over channels.</p>

<p>There are currently two Go compilers:</p>
<ul>
<li>6g/8g/5g (the compilers for AMD64, x86, and ARM respectively) with their supporting tools (collectively known as "gc") based on Ken's previous work on <a href="/wiki/Plan_9_from_Bell_Labs" title="Plan 9 from Bell Labs">Plan 9</a>'s C toolchain.</li>
<li>gccgo, a <a href="/wiki/GNU_Compiler_Collection" title="GNU Compiler Collection">GCC</a> frontend written in C++,<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span>[</span>15<span>]</span></a></sup> and now officially supported as of version 4.6, albeit not part of the standard binary for gcc.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span>[</span>16<span>]</span></a></sup></li>
</ul>
<p>Both compilers work on Unix-like systems, and a port to Microsoft Windows of the gc compiler and runtime have been integrated in the main distribution. Most of the standard libraries also work on Windows.</p>
<p>There is also an unmaintained "tiny" runtime environment that allows Go programs to run on bare hardware.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span>[</span>17<span>]</span></a></sup></p>
