Relating to my previous question, I have been reading but it is still not
clear to me what raw binary is, how is it different from
text formatted binary (fmt.Sprintf("%b", s1s2Byte))?
"text formated binary" takes a stream of bytes and for each bit in
this stream output "0" or "1" as letters, i.e. the bytes 48==0x30
and 49==0x31. An eightfold blowup in size.
Try understanding how _text_ is encoded as bytes.
Computers work on streams of bytes.
The meaning/interpretation of a single byte can vary:
Not all number can be stored in a single byte and
text has to be encoded by bytes too.
Please forget about "raw binary", there is no such thing.
String variables are a stream of bytes and do not need any encoding,
especially not something like "raw binary" that doesn't exist.
A stream of bytes can be _printed_ (encoded) as decimal, hexadecimal,
octal, base64 or even as bit ('0' and '1'). sometimes this is necessary
because the underlying protocol cannot transmit possible byte values.
When dealing with "binary" streams this cannot happen (it happens e.g.
when using JSON to transmit data).
You have to make clear what the output/encoding space should be
(and why!): There is a inconsistency between wanting "binary" and
a textual bit stream (which is not "binary" but text) and hexadecimal
encoding (also not binary but text).
You manoeuvred yourself in a corner by focusing on the solution
instead of the actual problem.

In my problem above I need to encode s1+s2 to raw binary before sending the
result to the server
which then decodes the raw binary back to s1+s2.

Do you mean encoding should be
rawdata := fmt.Print("%016d%s%s", len(s1), s1,s2)
or
rawdata := fmt.Printf("%016d%s%s", len(s1), s1,s2)

Sorry I did not frame my question properly but what I would like to do is to
encode concatenated s1 and s2 into raw binary and then decode the raw binary
back to s1 and s2.

If s1 and s2 are a fixed length then you can just slice up the decoded
string based on the lengths. If they are of a variable length, you'll need
a separator in the input string to later split on when decoded (s3 := s1 +
":" + s2 etc)?

Hi,
I have two hexadecimal string values and would like to concatenate the two
strings and
1. encode the result to binary
2. decode the resulting binary back to hexadecimal string
I did the following but I was finding it difficult to decode the result
back. I ignore error check in this case.
What i did so far:
s1 := "1d28ed66824aa2593e1f2a4cf740343f"
s2 := "dee2bd5dde763885944bc9d65419"
s3 := s1 + s2
s1s2Byte, _ := hex.DecodeString(s3)
randAutnBin := fmt.Sprintf("%b", s1s2Byte)
result:
[11101 101000 11101101 1100110 10000010 1001010 10100010 1011001 111110
11111 101010 1001100 11110111 1000000 110100 111111 11011110 11100010
10111101 1011101 11011110 1110110 111000 10000101 10010100 1001011 11001001
11010110 1010100 11001]
I would like to decode the binary result back the hexadecimal string to get
s1 and s2.
Any help?
