In this tutorial, We are going to learn about how to convert a zero terminated byte array to string in go golang.
Example:
byteArray = [10]byte{'a', 'b', 'c', 'd'}
// string function will convert byte array to string
s := string(byteArray[:])
Note: You can’t convert byte array directly to string so first slice it then convert to string.
Example with code:
package main
import (
"fmt"
)
func main() {
arr := [10]byte{'a', 'b', 'c'}
fmt.Println("byte Array: ", arr)
str := string(arr[:])
fmt.Println("After converting byte array to string: ", str)
}
Output:
byte Array: [97 98 99 0 0 0 0 0 0 0]
After converting byte array to string: abc
package main
import (
"fmt"
)
func main() {
arr := [10]byte{'1', '2', '3'}
fmt.Println("byte Array: ", arr)
str := string(arr[:])
fmt.Println("After converting byte array to string: ", str)
}
Output:
byte Array: [49 50 51 0 0 0 0 0 0 0]
After converting byte array to string: 123
