As usual, lets revisit something that Pascal could do in 1976,

    type

    StatusCodes = (Success, Ongoing, Done)

Go in 2025,

    type StatusCodes int

    const (
        Success StatusCodes = iota
        Ongoing
        Done
    )

Where's Pascal today?

It's alive and kicking, right? :) https://www.freepascal.org They even have a game engine that can compile to a WASM target: https://castle-engine.io/web

Go is still not good
