This project contains some exercises to practice Reading, Writing, Creating, Copying, and some more use cases when handling files with Go.

1. pathExists/: Check if a given path truly exists.
2. isFile/: Check if a given path is a regular file.
3. isDirectory/: Check if a given path is a directory.
4. readFull/: Read a complete file at once .
5. readByLine/: Read a file line by line.
6. readByWord/: Read a file word by word.
7. readByChar/: Read a file character by character.
8. createFile/: Program for creating a new file.
9. copyFile/: Program to create a new file as a copy of another one.
10. writeFile/: Program for creating a file and writing some data within.
11. appendData/: Program for adding some new data in an existing file.
12. catData/: Program for printing on the terminal the content of a file.

You can always use the ./tmp/data.txt file when testing the programs.

If you are beginning to learn Go, I recommend you to first check the basic Golang repos I have built to lay the foundation. Then come back and check these programs:

• Basic Go - I
• Basic Go - II
