Golang bufio.ReadString() function example

package bufio

ReadString reads until the first occurrence of delimiter in the input, returning a string containing the data up to and including the delimiter. If ReadString encounters an error before finding a delimiter, it returns the data read before the error and the error itself (often io.EOF). ReadString returns err != nil if and only if the returned data does not end in delimiter. For simple uses, a Scanner may be more convenient.
