Reading an integer from standard input

Question

How do I use the fmt.Scanf function in Go to get an integer input from the standard input?

If this can\'t be done using fmt.Scanf, what\'s

Answer 1

Here is my "Fast IO" method for reading positive integers. It could be improved with bitshifts and laying out memory in advance.

package main

import (
    "io/ioutil"
    "bufio"
    "os"
    "strconv"
)


func main() {
    out := bufio.NewWriter(os.Stdout)
    ints := getInts()
    var T int64
    T, ints = ints[0], ints[1:]
    ..
    out.WriteString(strconv.Itoa(my_num) + "\n")
    out.Flush()
    }
}

func getInts() []int64 {
    //assumes POSITIVE INTEGERS. Check v for '-' if you have negative.
    var buf []byte
    buf, _ = ioutil.ReadAll(os.Stdin)
    var ints []int64
    num := int64(0)
    found := false
    for _, v := range buf {
        if '0' <= v && v <= '9' {
            num = 10*num + int64(v - '0') //could use bitshifting here.
            found = true
        } else if found {
            ints = append(ints, num)
            found = false
            num = 0
        }
    }
    if found {
        ints = append(ints, num)
        found = false
        num = 0
    }
    return ints
}
