Go language provides inbuilt support to implement conversions to and from string representations of basic data types by strconv Package. This package provides a QuoteRuneToASCII() function which is used to find a single-quoted Go string literal representing rune and the returned string uses Go escape sequences (\t, \n, \xFF, \u0100) to non-ASCII characters and non-printable characters defined by IsPrint. To access QuoteRuneToASCII() function you need to import strconv Package in your program with the help of import keyword.
Syntax:
func QuoteRuneToASCII(rn rune) string
Parameter: This function takes one parameter of rune type, i.e., rn.
Return value: This function returns a single-quoted Go string literal which represents rune.
Let us discuss this concept with the help of the given examples:
Example 1:
// Golang program to illustrate
// strconv.QuoteRuneToASCII() Function
package main
import (
"fmt"
"strconv"
)
func main() {
// Finding a single-quoted Go
// string literal representing rune
// Using QuoteRuneToASCII() function
r := strconv.QuoteRuneToASCII('♥')
fmt.Println (r)
}
Output:
'\u2665'
Example 2:
// Golang program to illustrate
// strconv.QuoteRuneToASCII() Function
package main
import (
"fmt"
"strconv"
)
func main() {
// Finding a single-quoted Go
// string literal representing rune
// Using QuoteRuneToASCII() function
val1 := strconv.QuoteRuneToASCII('♣')
fmt.Println("Result 1: ", val1)
fmt.Println("Length 1: ", len(val1))
val2 := strconv.QuoteRuneToASCII('→')
fmt.Println("Result 2: ", val2)
fmt.Println("Length 2: ", len(val2))
}
Output:
Result 1: '\u2663'
Length 1: 8
Result 2: '\u2192'
Length 2: 8
