At this week's GTALUG meeting a couple of people asked what Swift looked
like compared to other languages here is an example of a nursery rhyme:

Swift:
<https://github.com/myles/five-little-monkeys/blob/master/five-little-monkeys.swift>

Go:
<https://github.com/myles/five-little-monkeys/blob/master/five-little-monkeys.go>

Python:
<https://github.com/myles/five-little-monkeys/blob/master/five-little-monkeys.py>

Ruby:
<https://github.com/myles/five-little-monkeys/blob/master/five-little-monkeys.rb>

I also mistakenly said that Go and Swift look like Python but Go and
Swift look nothing a like. After some more research I should have said
Go and Swift look the same but take a lot of influence from Python and C.
