MEMORANDUM

TO: Boss's Name


FROM: Your Name
DATE: Date
SUBJECT: Transitioning to Go for Project

I am writing to address the transition to Go for Project. After reviewing the requirements and
potential benefits of the language, I'm optimistic about our ability to adapt and leverage its
capabilities effectively.

Knowledge of the Language and Possible Projects:


Google created the contemporary programming language Go, called Golang. It is well known for
supporting concurrency and being straightforward and efficient. Web development, cloud-native
apps, microservices, and systems programming are among the areas where Go excels. Because of
its rapid compilation times, lightweight concurrency mechanism, and inherent parallelism
support, it's a great option for developing scalable, high-performance applications.

Existing Programming Languages and Relations:


I have knowledge of Java and SQL language. Java is versatile for application development, SQL
excels in database management, and Go, prioritizes simplicity, efficiency, and concurrency,
making it suitable for building scalable, concurrent systems such as web servers and cloud
applications.

Importance of Go in the Internet Age:


Software solutions that are concurrent, scalable, and efficient are critical in today's Internet-
driven environment. Go does a fantastic job of meeting these needs, particularly about
distributed systems, cloud-native apps, and web services. To ensure optimal performance and
scalability in the Internet era, it is the perfect solution for designing backend services because of
its simplicity, performance, and built-in support for concurrency.

Approach to Getting Up to Speed:


To familiarize myself with Go, I plan to dedicate approximately 10 hours per week to study and
practice. This will involve a combination of self-paced learning, hands-on experimentation, and
structured courses.

Books for Learning and Reference:


For learning, I propose acquiring "The Go Programming Language" by Alan A. A. Donovan and
Brian W. Kernighan as it provides a comprehensive introduction to the language, covering
essential syntax, features, and best practices. As a reference guide, "Go Programming Language
Phrasebook" by David Chisnall would be invaluable, offering concise solutions to common
programming tasks and language features.

Low-Cost Course Recommendation:


I advise signing up for Todd McLeod's "Learn How To Code: Google's Go (Golang)
Programming Language" course on Udemy. The foundations of Go are covered in this course in
an organized way, with practical examples and hands-on exercises to help reinforce what is
learned.

Cost Estimate for Resources:


1. "The Go Programming Language" (Learning book): $40
2. "Go Programming Language Phrasebook" (Reference book): $50
3. Udemy course: "Learn How to Code: Google's Go (Golang) Programming Language" by
Todd McLeod: $30
Total Estimated Cost: $120

Investing in these resources will expedite my proficiency in Go and enable us to transition


smoothly for Project [Project Name]. Please let me know if you approve of these arrangements
and if there are any additional resources or support needed for this transition.

Thank you for your support and confidence in my ability to tackle this challenge.
