Welcome to the Go-Concurrency repository! This repository is dedicated to exploring Go's powerful concurrency features, providing comprehensive examples, explanations, and code samples to help you harness the full potential of parallel programming in Go applications.
Go is known for its excellent support for concurrent programming. Concurrency is the ability of a program to execute multiple tasks independently and simultaneously. Go achieves concurrency through its lightweight and efficient Goroutines and Channels, making it easy to write concurrent and efficient programs.
This repository covers various topics related to Go concurrency, including but not limited to:
-
Goroutines: Learn how to create and manage Goroutines, lightweight threads that enable concurrent execution.
-
Channels: Understand Channels, the communication mechanism used to share data between Goroutines safely.
-
Synchronization: Explore different synchronization techniques to prevent data races and ensure proper coordination between concurrent tasks.
-
Concurrency Patterns: Discover common concurrency patterns like fan-out/fan-in, worker pools, and more.
-
Select Statement: Learn how to use the powerful
selectstatement to work with multiple channels effectively. -
Context Package: Understand the Context package for managing Goroutine lifecycles and request-scoped values.
-
Mutex and WaitGroup: Get familiar with Mutexes and WaitGroups for advanced synchronization.
You can start exploring the topics by browsing the folders and files in this repository. Each topic is organized in separate directories, containing code samples and explanations.
Feel free to open issues for questions, feedback, or suggestions. Contributions are also welcome! If you have a new example or want to improve existing content, submit a pull request, and our community will review it.
