Google releases new programing language.

is go so badly broken that it doesn't use the "#line" preprocessor directive to enable source level debugging? or are you making s*it up?

If you check the doc's, they mention that the GCC frontend generates C code, which is all you get for debugging.

I haven't read the docs, so I'll take your word for it. But if that's the case, then it is not a gcc frontend - it's a pre-processor generating C as an intermediary language. That's fair enough - there are several compiler tools that do that, and it's a quick way to make a fairly portable tool. But the terminology they have used on the website is at best misleading.

Of course not. It's a nice symmetry. Previously one could only get confused about the order the parameters. Now scope for confusion about the order of results has been added.
