To create an empty byte slice in Go using the bytes package, you can use the New()
function. Here is an example:
package main
import (
"bytes"
"fmt"
)
func main() {
// Create an empty byte slice using the bytes package
b := bytes.NewBuffer(nil)
fmt.Println(b.Bytes())
fmt.Println(len(b.Bytes()))
}
In this example, we are using the New()
function from the bytes package to create an empty byte slice. The function takes a byte slice as input, so passing nil
will create an empty byte slice.
The b
variable can then be used to perform operations on the byte slice. In this example, we are printing the byte slice using b.Bytes()
and its length using len(b.Bytes())
. Both of these will output []
(empty byte slice) and 0
respectively.
