What it is

Because Go language is an effort to combine the ease of programming of an interpreted, dynamically typed language with the efficiency and safety of a statically typed, compiled language. It also aims to be modern, with support for networked and multicore computing.

What excludes in Go which is present in other languages?

Go attempts to reduce the amount of typing in both senses of the word. Throughout its design, developers tried to reduce clutter and complexity.

There are no forward declarations and no header files; everything is declared exactly once.
Stuttering is reduced by simple type derivation using the := declare-and-initialize construct.
There is no type hierarchy: types just are, they don’t have to announce their relationships.
