Check if the Slice of bytes ends with specified suffix in Golang
In Go language slice is more powerful, flexible, convenient than an array, and is a lightweight data structure. The slice is a variable-length sequence which stores elements of a similar type, you are not allowed to store different type of elements in the same slice.
In the Go slice of bytes, you can check whether the given slice ends with the specified prefix or not with the help of HasSuffix() function. This function returns true if the given slice starts with the specified suffix or return false if the given slice does not end with the specified suffix. It is defined under the bytes package so, you have to import bytes package in your program for accessing HasSuffix function.
Syntax:
func HasSuffix(slice_1, suf []byte) bool
Here, slice_1 is the original slice of bytes and suf is the suffix which is also a slice of bytes. The return type of this function is of the bool type.
Example:
// Go program to illustrate how to check the // given slice ends with the specified suffix package main import ( "bytes" "fmt" ) func main() { // Creating and initializing slices of bytes // Using shorthand declaration slice_1 := []byte{ 'G' , 'E' , 'E' , 'K' , 'S' , 'F' , 'o' , 'r' , 'G' , 'E' , 'E' , 'K' , 'S' } slice_2 := []byte{ 'A' , 'P' , 'P' , 'L' , 'E' } // Checking whether the given slice // ends with the specified suffix or not // Using HasSuffix function res1 := bytes.HasSuffix(slice_1, []byte( "S" )) res2 := bytes.HasSuffix(slice_2, []byte( "O" )) res3 := bytes.HasSuffix([]byte( "Hello! I am Apple." ), []byte( "Hello" )) res4 := bytes.HasSuffix([]byte( "Hello! I am Apple." ), []byte( "Apple." )) res5 := bytes.HasSuffix([]byte( "Hello! I am Apple." ), []byte( "." )) res6 := bytes.HasSuffix([]byte( "Hello! I am Apple." ), []byte( "P" )) res7 := bytes.HasSuffix([]byte( "Geeks" ), []byte( "" )) // Displaying results fmt.Println( "Result_1: " , res1) fmt.Println( "Result_2: " , res2) fmt.Println( "Result_3: " , res3) fmt.Println( "Result_4: " , res4) fmt.Println( "Result_5: " , res5) fmt.Println( "Result_6: " , res6) fmt.Println( "Result_7: " , res7) } |
Output:
Result_1: true Result_2: false Result_3: false Result_4: true Result_5: true Result_6: false Result_7: true
