To count the occurrences of a specific byte sequence in a byte slice using the bytes
package in Go, you can use the Count
function provided by the bytes
package.
Here's an example:
package main
import (
"bytes"
"fmt"
)
func main() {
// Sample byte slice
b := []byte{0x12, 0x34, 0x56, 0x12, 0x34, 0x56, 0x12, 0x34, 0x56}
// Byte sequence to count
seq := []byte{0x12, 0x34, 0x56}
// Count occurrences
count := bytes.Count(b, seq)
// Print the count
fmt.Println("Occurrences:", count)
}
In this example, we first define a byte slice b
containing the data we want to search through. Then, we define the byte sequence seq
that we want to count occurrences of.
We use the bytes.Count
function, passing the byte slice and the byte sequence as arguments. This function returns the count of non-overlapping occurrences of seq
in b
.
Finally, we print the count to the console.
When you run this code, the output will be:
Occurrences: 3
Here, the byte sequence 0x12, 0x34, 0x56
is found three times in the byte slice.
