Garbage Collection
Garbage collector is a subsystem of the interpreter that handles de-allocation of memory that is not needed by the program anymore. Garbage collectors can naturally assist interpreted languages, because there is an interpreter. Go is a compiled language, but is different in this respect: it does have garbage collection built into it.
