ABSTRACT
In this chapter, you will look at AST (abstract syntax tree) and learn what it is about and why it is useful. You will learn AST by looking at the different examples in this chapter to understand the conversion of Go source code to AST. You will also learn about an open source security code analysis tool called gosec. This tool uses AST to perform code static analysis and you will see how this is performed by the tool.
