One of the gains after participating in the activity of Code On Weekend is that I have successfully adapted to the very basic knowledge of GoLang using general code command lines. It has similar syntax with C language but with add-on functionalities. For instances, structural typing is provided in GoLang and memory safety is protected from software bugs and security vulnerabilities.
Moreover, the activity ran smoothly as all of us were frequently prompted by some questions from the speaker and we had to think of its solutions after figuring out the principles behind the functioning GoLang operations. For example, we were asked to apply the fundamentals of GoLang language to enable the machine to read handwritten numbers.
As I do not have powerful coding skills, at first of the hands-on session, I faced some challenges in implementing the knowledge learnt during the activity. I needed some time to digest and process the concepts in order to deliver functionable code command lines.
