third sentence of opening paragraph ("Its simplicity express ...")

I nominate the sentence "Its simplicity express through its basic syntax of the language itself and its large library that help the developer to have a small stack for its project" for scrutiny and improvement efforts. What is it trying to say? What is its role in this first paragraph? Jorjulio (talk) 13:19, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

-i tried adding it but im a noob! Go (disambiguation) needs to exist, google comes here first for daft reasons.
-== Plan 9 C ==
-[[Go (programming language)#Design|The page]] mentions Go is inspired by Plan 9's C dialect, but the [https://go.dev/doc/asm reference] only talks about Plan 9 assembly conventions. Is there even such a thing as a Plan 9 C dialect? [[User:MattF|MattF]] ([[User talk:MattF|talk]]) 14:48, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
-:{{reply to|Mattf}} I believe the dialect being referred to, is what is mentioned on page 9 [https://css.csail.mit.edu/6.824/2014/papers/plan9.pdf here]. The <nowiki>[Pike95]</nowiki> citation mention in this document should be [https://doc.cat-v.org/plan_9/4th_edition/papers/comp this]. But I agree that a better source more explicitly describing the influence between this Plan 9 C dialect and Go might be beneficial.  --[[User:Askeuhd|askeuhd]] ([[User talk:Askeuhd|talk]]) 11:40, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
-:The design section gives the impression that C was the only influence, versus being among the various influences as shown in the influenced by section.  Robert Griesemer has publicly stated that he was also influenced by Oberon-2 (which shows in the influenced by section).  Refer to- [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ReKdcpNyQg/ The Evolution of Go from 17:00 on].  Maybe there needs to be more elaboration about the design influences.
-:[[User:Wukuendo|Wukuendo]] ([[User talk:Wukuendo|talk]]) 02:07, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
-:There was specifically support for compiling plan 9 C in the GC compiler, per an old design document https://docs.google.com/document/d/1P3BLR31VA8cvLJLfMibSuTdwTuF7WWLux71CYD0eeD8. The command was "6c" and [https://github.com/golang/go/issues/5115 worked like] [http://man.cat-v.org/plan_9/1/8c the plan9 6c].
