go语言学习笔记 - float and string 转换

String to float

Use the strconv.ParseFloat function to parse a string as a floating-point number with the precision specified by bitSize: 32 for float32, or 64 for float64.

func ParseFloat(s string, bitSize int) (float64, error)

When bitSize is 32, the result still has type float64, but it will be convertible to float32 without changing its value.

f := "3.14159265"
if s, err := strconv.ParseFloat(f, 32); err == nil {
    fmt.Println(s) // 3.1415927410125732
}
if s, err := strconv.ParseFloat(f, 64); err == nil {
    fmt.Println(s) // 3.14159265
}

Float to string

Use the fmt.Sprintf method to format a floating-point number as a string.

s := fmt.Sprintf("%f", 123.456) // s == "123.456000"

Formatting	Description	Verb
1.234560e+02	Scientific notation	%e
123.456000	Decimal point, no exponent	%f
123.46	Default width, precision 2	%.2f
␣␣123.46	Width 8, precision 2	%8.2f
123.456	Exponent as needed, necessary digits only	%g
