math.MaxUint32 Constant

The MaxUint32 constant is an inbuilt constant of the math package which is used to get the highest (maximum) value that can be represented by a uint32 (unsigned int32).

The value of math.MaxUint32 constants is 1<<32 - 1 or 4294967295.

Syntax:

int math.MaxUint32

Parameter(s):

• None

Return Value:

The return type of math.MaxUint32 constant is int, it returns the highest (maximum) value that can be represented by a uint32.

Example 1:

// Golang program to demonstrate the
// example of math.MaxUint32 Constant

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"math"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Printf("Type of math.MaxUint32 is %T\n", math.MaxUint32)
	fmt.Println("Value of math.MaxUint32:", math.MaxUint32)
}

Output:

Type of math.MaxUint32 is int
Value of math.MaxUint32: 4294967295

Explanation:

In the above program, we imported the math package to use the math.MaxUint32 constant, then printed the type and value of the math.MaxUint32 constant.

Example 2:

// Golang program to demonstrate the
// example of math.MaxUint32 Constant

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"math"
)

// creating function to
// return the value of MaxUint32.
func getMaxUint32() int {
	return math.MaxUint32
}

func main() {
	fmt.Println("Value of math.MaxUint32:", getMaxUint32())
}

Output:

Value of math.MaxUint32: 4294967295
