These features give great power for numeric uses.
Probably Go's developers would have never imagined to do numerical
operations with their language.
Only middlewares are in their sights.
I am a bit surprised that they'd still prefer Java Complex-like
ugliness rather than supporting operator overloading or an infix
function or method notation. Go is clearly coming from a C/Java
background, making it refreshingly uncomplex, but life's hard for
number crunching or building performant containers.
But hey, there is a compiler for 64-bit binaries :). Of course, I
should swallow that, and help with the LDC efforts...
Take care,
