Go, the greatest teaching language?

Go programming language has proven to be an excellent choice for writing interpreters and compilers. The code from "Writing An Interpreter In Go" published in 2016 still compiles and runs flawlessly with Go 1.23 today. Minimal changes were needed over eight years, mainly adding a go.mod file. The language's simplicity, built-in tools, and lack of complex constructs make it easy for readers to understand and translate the code to other languages. Numerous Monkey interpreter implementations now exist in various programming languages, demonstrating Go's effectiveness as a teaching tool for interpreter design.
