Скачать или смотреть Learning Golang: Introduction to Concurrency Patterns, goroutines and channels

Welcome! Let's learn about Go/Golang Concurrency Patterns, but first let's learn about concurrency in Go/Golang, including goroutines, channels and the different keywords needed: like close, range and select.

What is a goroutine?
It is lightweight thread managed by the Go/Golang runtime, independently executed function that has its own call stack.

What is a channel?
Is a mechanism through which we can send and receive values, it uses the arrow operator which indicates data flow.

By default sender and receiver will block if the other side is not ready

What is a buffered channel?
It's a type of buffer that has a length.

Sending to a buffered channel will block if it is full and receiving from a buffered channel will only block when it's empty.

What else can we do with channels?

There are 3 new keywords applicable to channels: "close", "select" and "range":

"close" allows closing the channel, this means we can't receive or send values to it.
"selects" allows to receive messages from multiple channels via "cases", it's like a "switch", it also supports a "default" value.
"range" is similar to the keyword used when looping through slices/arrays; but in this cases it will continuously receive values from the channel until it gets closed.

Recall this is the "Introduction to Concurrency Patterns in Go/Golang", in future episodes I will describe concrete patterns to use when building concurrent programs.
