// Go offers excellent support for string formatting in
// the `printf` tradition. Here are some examples of
// common string formatting tasks.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
)
type point struct {
x, y int
}
func main() {
// Go offers several printing "verbs" designed to
// format general Go values. For example, this prints
// an instance of our `point` struct.
p := point{1, 2}
fmt.Printf("%v\n", p)
// If the value is a struct, the `%+v` variant will
// include the struct's field names.
fmt.Printf("%+v\n", p)
// The `%#v` variant prints a Go syntax representation
// of the value, i.e. the source code snippet that
// would produce that value.
fmt.Printf("%#v\n", p)
// To print the type of a value, use `%T`.
fmt.Printf("%T\n", p)
// Formatting booleans is straight-forward.
fmt.Printf("%t\n", true)
// There are many options for formatting integers.
// Use `%d` for standard, base-10 formatting.
fmt.Printf("%d\n", 123)
// This prints a binary representation.
fmt.Printf("%b\n", 14)
// This prints the character corresponding to the
// given integer.
fmt.Printf("%c\n", 33)
// `%x` provides hex encoding.
fmt.Printf("%x\n", 456)
// There are also several formatting options for
// floats. For basic decimal formatting use `%f`.
fmt.Printf("%f\n", 78.9)
// `%e` and `%E` format the float in (slightly
// different versions of) scientific notation.
fmt.Printf("%e\n", 123400000.0)
fmt.Printf("%E\n", 123400000.0)
// For basic string printing use `%s`.
fmt.Printf("%s\n", "\"string\"")
// To double-quote strings as in Go source, use `%q`.
fmt.Printf("%q\n", "\"string\"")
// As with integers seen earlier, `%x` renders
// the string in base-16, with two output characters
// per byte of input.
fmt.Printf("%x\n", "hex this")
// To print a representation of a pointer, use `%p`.
fmt.Printf("%p\n", &p)
// When formatting numbers you will often want to
// control the width and precision of the resulting
// figure. To specify the width of an integer, use a
// number after the `%` in the verb. By default the
// result will be right-justified and padded with
// spaces.
fmt.Printf("|%6d|%6d|\n", 12, 345)
// You can also specify the width of printed floats,
// though usually you'll also want to restrict the
// decimal precision at the same time with the
// width.precision syntax.
fmt.Printf("|%6.2f|%6.2f|\n", 1.2, 3.45)
// To left-justify, use the `-` flag.
fmt.Printf("|%-6.2f|%-6.2f|\n", 1.2, 3.45)
// You may also want to control width when formatting
// strings, especially to ensure that they align in
// table-like output. For basic right-justified width.
fmt.Printf("|%6s|%6s|\n", "foo", "b")
// To left-justify use the `-` flag as with numbers.
fmt.Printf("|%-6s|%-6s|\n", "foo", "b")
// So far we've seen `Printf`, which prints the
// formatted string to `os.Stdout`. `Sprintf` formats
// and returns a string without printing it anywhere.
s := fmt.Sprintf("a %s", "string")
fmt.Println(s)
// You can format+print to `io.Writers` other than
// `os.Stdout` using `Fprintf`.
fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "an %s\n", "error")
