Package: golang-github-mgutz-to-dev (1.0.0-2)

Convenient type conversion utilities for Go

Convenient functions for converting values between common Go datatypes. For Go 1.1+.

This package ignores errors and allows quick-and-dirty conversions between Go datatypes. When any conversion seems unreasonable a zero value (http://golang.org/ref/spec#The_zero_value) is used as fallback.

If one is not working with human provided data, fuzzy input or if one would rather not ignore any error in your program, one should better use the standard Go packages for conversion, such as strconv (http://golang.org/pkg/strconv/), fmt (http://golang.org/pkg/fmt/) or even standard conversion (http://golang.org/ref/spec#Conversions) they may be better suited for the task.
