尝试在Golang中将字节片解析为基数16

Question

I'm trying to parse a slice of bytes with the below value 020000 to as a base 16 number but haven't gotten it working yet. What am I doing wrong?

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "strconv"
)

func main() {
    input := []byte{0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0}
    expectation := 131072

    actual := headerVersion(input)

    if actual != expectation {
        panic(fmt.Sprintf("Expected %v but got %v.", expectation, actual))
    }
}

func headerVersion(input []byte) int {
    output, _ := strconv.ParseUint(string(input), 16, 64)
    return int(output)
}

You've got a raw byte slice that is the bytes making up the number you want, but you're instead parsing it as if it were the bytes making up the string representation of the bytes making up the number you want. Rather than attempting to parse as a string, parse as what it is - bytes. You can do this using the binary package, which, per its documentation:

implements simple translation between numbers and byte sequences and encoding and decoding of varints.

Which is exactly what you want. How you use it will depend on the endianness and encoding of the data, but the documentation should get you going in the right direction.
