Golang Madness

Mike learns to Go! A journey from Java to Golang.

• Practices with Golang
  • Prime sieves
  • Algorithms refresh
    • Counting inversions (similarity, left, right and split inversions)
    • Closest pairs
    • randomized quick sort util
  • concurrency patterns Runner, Pool and Worker from Go in Action
• A take on ByteBuffer/StringBuilder and slice/bytes.Buffer
  • fix-sized ByteBuffer vs. dynamically sized slice
  • panic with error vs. multiple return values including error
  • method chaining vs. append and copy or util method with interface{}
  • object.oriented vs. functional
  • setter methods vs. xxxTo
  • honor the interfaces in common packages like io
  • impl. based on slice: w/ or w/o re-slicing benchmark comparison: how to make it faster? Too much overhead with cgo
• TCP communication in Golang
  • infinite data server (financial ticks)
  • data client
• Simple key-block database - sdb
