Is Go a good first language to start programming?

Go is a good first language to start programming with for several reasons.

1. It has consistent syntax, making it easy to remember how to write code.
2. As a modern language, Go has learned from mistakes made by older ones.
3. Google endorses Go and that assures its future.

The problem you may encounter when learning Go first is that you might be reluctant to look back at older languages after. So, be careful (laughing)... 

Keep an open mind and go for it.

Here's a good place to start:

• The Go Programming Language Tutorial - Volume 1

Try it.
