Google adds to library of OOP language by release of its lightweight opensource programming language GO. Pointing to the fact that “Computers are enormously quicker but software development is not faster”,   Google embraces following features within GO:

It is FASTER comparable to C or C++ code
lightweight
Provide support for multi-processing
And after all it is open source

Google defines Go as an attempt to combine the ease of programming of an interpreted, dynamically typed language (such as Python and JavaScript ) with the efficiency and safety of a statically typed, compiled language(such as C++ or Java).

Something that you will like in it

a. Auto formatting with gofmt program
b. avoids much of the overhead of C-style include files and libraries.
c. There is NO POINTER ARITHMETIC
d. It provides an interface for calling C- written libraries from GO

It is quiet a part same a C but still a lot different. While and Do loops go exit but a multiplexer selector control structure adds. A lot more changes but better explore more yourself for GO programming.
