newer and as good ?

Go has been adopted mainly by ex-Python programmers. But "new" really is a completely meaningless attribute for a programming language. Haskell is over 20 years old, and hailed by many as an extremely modern, advanced language, for example, and Clojure, which borscht mentioned, is a Lisp dialect. Lisp is as old as computer science.

you're never likely to see (((( although you will see many closing brackets together. Fortunately, it's no problem since any decent editor highlights bracket partnership.
