The advantage with Go is that finished programs are faster. But they take longer to write. So pick based on that "metric".

Hi, I'm a network engineer who has rarely had to script or program. I'm trying to learn a programming / scripting language and have begun some online Python courses and bought a couple of books. After reading this I'm wondering if I should focus on go instead of Python. Any sage advice for a programming novice? Thanks !
