fmt: %d format allows function argument #7097

rogpeppe · 2014-01-10T16:57:32Z

package main
import "fmt"
func f() {}
func main() {
    fmt.Printf("%d\n", f)
}

This prints "4197376", not "%!d(func()=0x400c00)" as I would expect.

How does this relate to issue #3936 and revision 365d02e0927c ?

Comment 4:

Working as intended, or at least as a consequence of the desire to provide non-hex
formats to pointers.

Status changed to WorkingAsIntended.

I didn't realise we wanted to do that. Why do we have a %p verb?
