Gambaran Umum
Go (Golang) is a statically typed, compiled programming language designed at Google for building simple, reliable, and efficient software. Created by Rob Pike, Ken Thompson, and Robert Griesemer, Go combines the performance and safety of compiled languages like C++ with the ease of use and productivity of interpreted languages like Python. Go's killer features include blazing-fast compilation, native concurrency with goroutines and channels, built-in garbage collection, and a comprehensive standard library. The language enforces simplicity - one way to do things, explicit error handling, and minimal syntax - making Go code easy to read, maintain, and scale across large teams.

import "fmt"
func main() {
fmt.Println("Hello, World!")
}
```
```bash

})
r.Run(":8080")
}
```
**Concurrency Example:**
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
)
func worker(id int, jobs <-chan int, results chan<- int) {
for j := range jobs {
fmt.Printf("Worker %d processing job %d\n", id, j)
time.Sleep(time.Second)
results <- j * 2
}
}
func main() {
jobs := make(chan int, 100)
results := make(chan int, 100)
// Start 3 workers
for w := 1; w <= 3; w++ {
go worker(w, jobs, results)
}
// Send 5 jobs
for j := 1; j <= 5; j++ {
jobs <- j
}
close(jobs)
// Collect results
for a := 1; a <= 5; a++ {
<-results
}
}
