Combine two numbers


How can I archive the following in Go? Let's say I have two int32 which both have the value 33.
How can I combine them into one int32 with the value 3333 instead of 66?


Solution

  • var a, b int32 = 33, 33
    a = a*100 + b
    fmt.Println(a)
    

    Playground.

    Edit: Here is a version which computes the padding depending on the number:

    func main() {
        var a, b int32 = 1234, 456
        a = a*padding(b) + b
        fmt.Println(a)
    }
    
    func padding(n int32) int32 {
        var p int32 = 1
        for p < n {
            p *= 10
        }
        return p
    }
    

    Playground.

    Note that you should also check that int32 won't overflow. If you don't want to worry about overflows, you can use a big.Int instead.
