I installed Go (programming language) to Max OS X but "go version" in terminal gives
-bash: go: command not found
Echoing $PATH returns:
/Users/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/bin:/Users/user/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194@global/bin:/Users/user/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p194/bin:/Users/user/.rvm/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin
What do I need to change to start using Go?

Go should be installed to either /usr/local/go/bin or ~/Go/bin — I can't test the installer now.
Try editing your ~/.bash_profile by calling:
nano ~/.bash_profile
Then adding:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
Save the file by pressing CtrlO, then ↩, and reload your shell (e.g. by restarting the Terminal). Now, go should work as a command, assuming it is provided as /usr/local/go/bin/go.

I cannot find /usr/local/go. What if I used GVM? – IgorGanapolsky – 2016-09-12T00:58:20.393

GVM should install into ~/.gvm, but I have never used it. If even the gvm command is not working for you, perhaps it's better to raise an issue here: https://github.com/moovweb/gvm — or look at the documentation. Maybe something went wrong during the installation.
