Notas sobre el uso de Reemplazar en el paquete de cadenas en golang

Declaración de función:

func Replace(s, old, new string, n int) string

La descripción oficial es:

Devuelve una nueva cadena que reemplaza las primeras n subcadenas antiguas que no se superponen en s con new. Si n <0, se reemplazan todas las subcadenas antiguas.

El código de muestra es:

func main() {
    // non-overlapping: "123" repeat 6 times in s
    s := "123lafaldsjglad123lkfasdf123djfal123lkdjga123lksjfla123l"
    old := "123"
    new := "888"

fmt.Println("non-overlapping: ")
 // n < 0 ,用 new 替换所有匹配上的 old；n=-1:  888lafaldsjglad888lkfasdf888djfal888lkdjga888lksjfla888l
fmt.Println("n=-1: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, -1 ))

// 不替换任何匹配的 old；n=0:  123lafaldsjglad123lkfasdf123djfal123lkdjga123lksjfla123l
fmt.Println("n=0: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, 0 )) 

// 用 new 替换第一个匹配的 old；n=1:  888lafaldsjglad123lkfasdf123djfal123lkdjga123lksjfla123l
fmt.Println("n=1: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, 1 ))

// 用 new 替换前 5 个匹配的 old（实际多于 5 个）；n=5:  888lafaldsjglad888lkfasdf888djfal888lkdjga888lksjfla123l
fmt.Println("n=5: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, 5 )) 

// 用 new 替换前 7 个匹配上的 old（实际没那么多）；n=7:  888lafaldsjglad888lkfasdf888djfal888lkdjga888lksjfla888l
fmt.Println("n=7: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, 7 )) 

// overlapping:
s = "888888888888888888"
old = "888"
new = "666"
fmt.Println("overlapping: ")

// n < 0 ,用 new 替换所有匹配上的 old；n=-1:  666666666666666666
fmt.Println("n=-1: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, -1 )) 

// 不替换任何匹配的 old；n=0:  888888888888888888
fmt.Println("n=0: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, 0 )) 

// 用 new 替换第一个匹配的 old；n=1:  666888888888888888
fmt.Println("n=1: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, 1 )) 

 // 用 new 替换前 5 个匹配的 old（实际多于 5 个）；n=5:  666666666666666888
fmt.Println("n=5: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, 5 ))

 // 用 new 替换前 7 个匹配上的 old（实际没那么多）；n=7:  666666666666666666
fmt.Println("n=7: ", strings.Replace(s, old, new, 7 ))
