Find go version

go

Solution

Perhaps write a small program to print runtime.Version() ?

Problem

Why can't I find the version of go on my ubuntu 14.04? The output of `go version` doesn't give me info on whether the `go` is 1.7 or 1.8. Any ideas? ``` $ go version go version xgcc (Ubuntu 4.9.3-0ubuntu4) 4.9.3 linux/amd64 $ uname -a Linux jin1-hp1 3.19.0-65-generic #73~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 29 21:05:22 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ``` Following another post, I found it from the command of `docker`, but I would like to find the version from `go` command itself. ``` $ docker version Client: Version: 1.11.2 API version: 1.23 Go version: go1.5.4 Git commit: b9f10c9 Built: Wed Jun 1 21:47:50 2016 OS/Arch: linux/amd64 Cannot connect to the Docker daemon. Is the docker daemon running on this host? ```
