Conversions to and from a string type

  1. -Converting an integer value yields a string containing the UTF-8 -representation of the integer. +Converting a signed or unsigned integer value to a string type yields a +string containing the UTF-8 representation of the integer. +Negative values are converted to "\uFFFD". 
    -string(0x65e5)  // "\u65e5" == "日" == "\xe6\x97\xa5"
+string('a')  // "a"

  2. -Converting a slice of integers yields a string that is the -concatenation of the individual integers converted to strings. -If the slice value is nil, the result is the empty string. +Converting a value of type []byte (or +the equivalent []uint8) to a string type yields a +string whose successive bytes are the elements of the slice.
