Submitted by IncludeHelp, on September 29, 2021

bytes.TrimRightFunc()

The TrimRightFunc() function is an inbuilt function of the bytes package which is used to get a subslice of the byte slice (s) by slicing off all trailing UTF-8-encoded code points c that satisfy f(c).

It accepts two parameters (s []byte, f func(r rune) bool) and returns a subslice of s by slicing off all trailing UTF-8-encoded code points that are contained in the cutset.

Syntax

func TrimRightFunc(s []byte, f func(r rune) bool) []byte

Parameters

• s : The byte slice for trimming.
• f : The bool function to check and remove the trailing bytes.

Return Value

The return type of the TrimRightFunc() function is a []byte, it returns a subslice of s by slicing off all trailing UTF-8-encoded code points that are contained in the cutset.

Example 1

// Golang program to demonstrate the
// example of bytes.TrimRightFunc() function

package main

import (
	"bytes"
	"fmt"
	"unicode"
)

func main() {
	// Returns true if character is either letter or number
	// Thus, the bytes.TrimRightFunc() function will remove all
	// trailing letters or numbers
	f := func(c rune) bool {
		return unicode.IsLetter(c) || unicode.IsNumber(c)
	}

	fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.TrimRightFunc(
		[]byte("C211, RWA Flats, Delhi65"), f))
	fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.TrimRightFunc(
		[]byte("Okay@123!Hello...End"), f))
}

Output:

"C211, RWA Flats, "
"Okay@123!Hello..."

Example 2

// Golang program to demonstrate the
// example of bytes.TrimRightFunc() function

package main

import (
	"bytes"
	"fmt"
	"unicode"
)

func main() {
	// Returns true if character is letter
	f1 := func(c rune) bool {
		return unicode.IsLetter(c)
	}

	// Returns true if character is number
	f2 := func(c rune) bool {
		return unicode.IsNumber(c)
	}
	// Returns true if character is either letter or number
	f3 := func(c rune) bool {
		return unicode.IsLetter(c) || unicode.IsNumber(c)
	}

	fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.TrimRightFunc(
		[]byte("abcd123abcd"), f1))

	fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.TrimRightFunc(
		[]byte("123abcd456"), f2))

	fmt.Printf("%q\n", bytes.TrimRightFunc(
		[]byte("abc123@IncludeHelp#456xyz"), f3))
}

Output:

"abcd123"
"123abcd"
"abc123@IncludeHelp#"
