strings.IndexAny() Function in Golang With Examples

strings.IndexAny() Function in Golang is used to returns the index of the first instance of any Unicode code point from chars in the original string. If the Unicode code point from chars is not available in the original string, then this method will return -1.

Syntax:

func IndexAny(str, charstr string) int

Here, str is the original string and charstr is a Unicode code point from chars whose we want to find index value.

Example 1:

// Golang program to illustrate
// the strings.IndexAny() Function
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "strings"
)

// Main function
func main() {

    // Creating and initializing the strings
    str1 := "GeeksforGeeks - A Computer Science Portal"
    str2 := "GFG is the Best"

    // Displaying strings
    fmt.Println("String 1: ", str1)
    fmt.Println("String 2: ", str2)


    // Finding the index value
    // of the given strings
    // Using IndexAny() function
    res1 := strings.IndexAny(str1, "G")
    res2 := strings.IndexAny(str2, "Be")
    res3 := strings.IndexAny("GFG, geeks", "uywq")

    // Displaying the result
    fmt.Println("\nIndex values:")
    fmt.Println("Result 1: ", res1)
    fmt.Println("Result 2: ", res2)
    fmt.Println("Result 3: ", res3)

}

Output:

String 1:  GeeksforGeeks - A Computer Science Portal
String 2:  GFG is the Best

Index values:
Result 1:  0
Result 2:  9
Result 3:  -1

Example 2:

// Golang program to illustrate
// the strings.IndexAny() Function
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "strings"
)

// Main function
func main() {

    // using the function
    fmt.Println(strings.IndexAny("Why GFG?", "F"))

}

Output:
