Go on the Instructional computers
---------------------------------
  Go (https://golang.org/) (aka Golang) is a programming language that is
  designed for multi-core processors.  It uses goroutines instead of the
  more traditional threads to manage concurrent execution, locking, race 
  conditions and deadlocks.  Go code is compiled.  Go is designed and
  supported by Google. 

  The Go compiler and documents can be run as

	/share/instsww/bin/go		(on Linux systems)
	/share/instsww/bin/godoc	(on Linux systems)

  You can add that to your Linux search path with the UNIX command:

  	export PATH=/share/instsww/bin:$PATH	(for the bash shell)
	setenv PATH /share/instsww/bin:$PATH	(for the csh shell)

  The current version is installed in /share/instsww/pkg/.
