Go is a simple parallel development that was released in 2009, and a cross-platform class C language. Because of its strong parallelism, it is suitable for network development.

Introduction from its website:

The Go programming language is an open source project that makes programmers more efficient. Go is expressive, concise, clear, and efficient. Its parallel mechanism makes it easy to write multicore and Web applications, while the novelty type system allows for the building of resilient modular programs. Go compiles to machine code very quickly, with convenient garbage collection and powerful runtime reflection. It is a fast, statically typed compilation language, but it feels like a dynamic type, interpreted language.
