5 // Package os provides a platform-independent interface to operating system
6 // functionality. The design is Unix-like, although the error handling is
7 // Go-like; failing calls return values of type error rather than error numbers.
8 // Often, more information is available within the error. For example,
9 // if a call that takes a file name fails, such as Open or Stat, the error
10 // will include the failing file name when printed and will be of type
11 // *PathError, which may be unpacked for more information.
13 // The os interface is intended to be uniform across all operating systems.
14 // Features not generally available appear in the system-specific package syscall.
16 // Here is a simple example, opening a file and reading some of it.
18 // file, err := os.Open("file.go") // For read access.
19 // if err != nil {
20 // log.Fatal(err)
21 // }
23 // If the open fails, the error string will be self-explanatory, like
25 // open file.go: no such file or directory
27 // The file's data can then be read into a slice of bytes. Read and
28 // Write take their byte counts from the length of the argument slice.
30 // data := make([]byte, 100)
31 // count, err := file.Read(data)
32 // if err != nil {
33 // log.Fatal(err)
34 // }
35 // fmt.Printf("read %d bytes: %q\n", count, data[:count])
