How do I then change them back to the actual characters? If you see the characters with %q, then they are also there with %s. But since they aren't printable characters, you aren't seeing them. To put it another way: what do you expect to see? Ian On Tuesday, July 2, 2024 at 7:15:36 PM UTC-4 Ian Lance Taylor wrote: 1) Please send Go code as plain text, not as an image. Anybody can read plain text. Images are hard to read. Thanks. 2) What do you see if you change the %s to %q in the fmt.Printf call?

This looks to be working as expected. https://go.dev/play/p/fqLPbsMKaOm How are you seeing the bytes being missing? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
