# "First Class Functions in Go"
30 Jun 2011
Tags: codewalk, function, technical
Summary: Programmers new to Go are often surprised by its support for function types, functions as values, and closures. The [First Class Functions in Go](https://golang.org/doc/codewalk/functions/) code walk demonstrates these features with a simulation of the dice game [Pig](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig_(dice)). It is a pretty program that uses the language to great effect, and a fun read for Go beginners and veterans alike.
