=== Go ===

This snippet of [[Go (programming language)|Go]] code performs similarly to the XC code. First the channel c is created, then a [[goroutine]] is spawned which sends 42 through the channel. When the number is put in the channel x is set to 42. Go allows channels to buffer contents, as well as non blocking receiving through the use of a select block.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html#channels|title = Effective Go - the Go Programming Language}}</ref>

=== Rust ===

[[Rust (programming language)|Rust]] provides asynchronous channels for communication between threads. Channels allow a unidirectional flow of information between two end-pointsendpoints: the <code>Sender</code> and the <code>Receiver</code>.<ref>{{cite web |title=Channels - Rust By Example |url=https://doc.rust-lang.org/rust-by-example/std_misc/channels.html |website=doc.rust-lang.org |access-date=28 November 2020}}</ref>
