Thanks for examples, i can't tell if they are experimental or viable for 
production use. But if it's that straightforward, why people complain about 
it too much.

I implemented hash tables a billion times in C but i never complained about 
C's lack of map type. Because i understood the design choices and 
philosophy of C. 

I always dreamed a Ken Thompson version of C++, not necessarily an object 
oriented version of C but a more modern C. C with automatic memory 
management, better string handling etc, and still small and simple. 

Now we have it, and it's called Go (Thanks to Pike, Griesemer, Cox, Taylor 
and everyone). I love it because it's small, simple, modern and it 
maintains unix's and C's philosophy. 

It just hurts me to see people try to do it what they did to C++, add 
favorite feature of everyone. I know Go team is much smarter than me and 
Thompson is the creator of unix philosophy, i am confident that Go will 
stay as it is, a small simple, pragmatic and powerful language.

Thanks.
