I have always used INT_MAX in C and I'm trying to find an easy way to do it in Golang.

I did try INT_MAX and uint32 but they didn't work, and math.MaxInt is lengthy as I'll have to import math library.

CodePudding user response：

All such numeric constants are defined in the math package. Use math.MaxInt

Importing a package is not the same as importing a library. You are only importing the names in that package. No function in math library will be included in the final binary unless you use them.

CodePudding user response：

As you don't want to import math package or any other library

You can use the following value

1. MaxUint64 = (1 << 64) - 1
2. MaxUint32 = (1 << 32) - 1
3. MaxInt64 = (1 << 63) - 1
4. MaxInt32 = (1 << 31) - 1

I found an easy way. We can use the bitwise operator 1 << 31.
