I am using bufio
to append byte arrays to a file. When I use cat
on it I get:

So arrays of bytes. Now I want to read the file into memory, so I use:
content, err := ioutil.ReadFile(filename)
But when I display the content
variable I get a completely different output than the contents of the file (and one array instead of many). What's wrong?
