In this program, we will open a file and create a buffer-writer using a file pointer and then write data into the file using buffer writer into a file. After that, we get the buffered size and print it on the console screen.

Program/Source Code:

The source code to get the buffered size using buffer writer is given below. The given program is compiled and executed on the ubuntu 18.04 operating system successfully.

// Golang program to get the buffered size
// using buffer writer

package main

import "fmt"
import "os"
import "bufio"

func main() {
	filePtr, err := os.OpenFile("Demo.txt", os.O_WRONLY, 0666)

	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}

	//Create a buffer writter using file pointer.
	bufferedWriter := bufio.NewWriter(filePtr)

	len1, err := bufferedWriter.Write([]byte{10, 20, 30, 40, 50})
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}
	fmt.Printf("%d bytes written into file\n", len1)

	len2, err := bufferedWriter.WriteString("Hello World\n")
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}
	fmt.Printf("%d bytes written into file\n", len2)

	bufferedWriter.Flush()

	BufferedSize := bufferedWriter.Buffered()
	fmt.Printf("Buffered size: %d\n", BufferedSize)

	filePtr.Close()
}

Output:

5 bytes written into file
12 bytes written into file
Buffered size: 17

Explanation:

In the above program, we declare the package main. The main package is used to tell the Go language compiler that the package must be compiled and produced the executable file. Here, we imported the fmt, os packages then we can use a function related to the fmt and os package.

Here, we also imported the bufio package to use buffer writer to write data into a file.

In the main() function, we opened the "Demo.txt" file and then created a buffer-writer using bufio.NewWriter() function. Then write data into the file using buffer writer into a file. After that, we get the buffered size using the Buffered() function and print the buffered size on the console screen.
