Robert Griesemer b94c0d2a77 go spec: remove float, complex in favor of float64 and complex128
The default float type is not very useful but for the most basic applications.
For instance, as it is now, using the math package requires conversions for float
variables (the arguments for math functions are usually float64). Typical real
applications tend to specify the floating point precision required.

This proposal removes the predeclared types float and complex. Variable declarations
without type specification but with constant floating point or complex initializer
expressions will assume the type float64 or complex128 respectively.

The predeclared function cmplx is renamed to complex.

This is the source code repository for the Go programming language.  

For documentation about how to install and use Go,
visit http://golang.org/ or load doc/install.html in your web browser.

After installing Go, you can view a nicely formatted
doc/install.html by running godoc --http=:6060
and then visiting http://localhost:6060/doc/install.html.

Unless otherwise noted, the Go source files are distributed

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set
the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go
directory (the one containing this README).  You can omit the
variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild
from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install.html).
You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin
to your shell's path.

For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might
put the following in your .profile:

    export GOROOT=$HOME/go
    export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin

See doc/install.html for more details.
