Thank you for the wonderful article. I'm currently exploring Deep Learning I my spare time and Go has been on my 'to-do' list to learn for a while now. Your article serves to push it up said list. Looking forward to reading your other posts.

Thanks! I think Go will find its place in the area of deep learning. It is one of the few languages that bring the speed of compilation and the simplicity of a scripting language together.

nice tutorial, could you redo a version of this in python , not a go programmer

This blog is about Go; hence a post about Python would not really fit in. Tip: Click the last link in the article to find a blog post about building a single-neuron "network" (similar to the perceptron discussed here) in Python.

How are the values of `a` and `b` set?

They are set in main(). I take a cheap and dirty shortcut here and declare a and b as global variables (see the code block after the Training headline). This saves a few function parameters, but frankly, I would not do it again this way. Global variables are only ok in very small entities of source code, and even there they can cause the reader to lose track of the data flow, as your question proves. Even I had to look twice until I found the place were a and be are set, and I am the one who wrote the code! (Even though it has been quite a while ago...)
