go programming book.

[Kenneth Adam Miller]

so yea, i know there are resources on the internet, but when is there going to be a really good programming book that I can buy, with examples and test source and stuff in it?

[Andrew Gerrand]

As far as I know, nobody is currently writing a Go book. I am working
on writing and collecting introductory material and sample code,
though.

Go is currently something of a moving target. New things are
introduced to the language every few weeks. Because of this, I'm not
surprised nobody has written a book about it yet. I'm sure it will
happen at some point.

Tutorial is very good.
I think it is enough for the current moment.
But of course it is just my opinion.

Maybe it is a good idea to start a community book as a wiki? Maybe on
http://wikia.org or somewhere else?

I am a fan of using Latex for software documentation thus I (a latex
beginner) spent some effort to collect public Go doc materials and
covert them into latex source.

As you can see from the time stamp on the go.pdf at R1, It is quite
outdated due to lack of free time.

I can release the latex source if the go community is interested to
have a community Go book using latex.

R2 is html version, no need to download the whole go.pdf file to have
just a peek.
