I basically I agree with this. But lately, I was asking myself, though,
whether me classifying Go as simplistic was wrong. I programmed the
canonical Scala trait sample in Go. In that sample from the Scala book
there is a trait Rectangular with a upperLeft and bottomRight point.
Some class Rectangle extends trait Rectangular. I could get the same
accomplished using delegation in Go. The solution in Go is much much
simpler and from what I can tell the power is the same. So this made me
think.
Interesting. Could you please create a paste with the two code samples?
Thanks,
Andrei
