How to convert a rune to unicode-style-string like `\u554a` in Golang?

Question

If you run fmt.Println(\"\\u554a\"), it shows \'啊\'.

But how to get unicode-style-string \\u554a from a rune \'啊\' ?

Answer 1

fmt.Printf("\\u%X", '啊')

(Upper or lowercase 'x' will control the case of the hex characters)

As hinted at by package fmt's documentation:

%U Unicode format: U+1234; same as "U+%04X"
