readchomp

readchomp(x)

Read the entirety of x as a string but remove trailing newlines. Equivalent to chomp(readall(x)).

Examples

In the Julia programming language, the function readchomp(x) is used to read the entirety of x as a string but removes trailing newlines. It is equivalent to chomp(readall(x)).

Read and chomp a file:
```
julia> file = open("data.txt", "r");
julia> content = readchomp(file);
julia> close(file);
```
This example opens a file named "data.txt", reads its contents as a string, and removes any trailing newlines.
Read and chomp from standard input:
```
julia> input = readchomp(stdin);
```
This example reads input from the standard input (keyboard) and removes any trailing newlines.
Read and chomp from a string IO buffer:
```
julia> io = IOBuffer("Hello\nWorld\n");
julia> content = readchomp(io);
```
This example creates a string IO buffer with the contents "Hello\nWorld\n", reads from the buffer, and removes any trailing newlines.

Common mistake example:

julia> file = open("data.txt", "r");
julia> content = readchomp(file)
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching readchomp(::IOStream)

In this example, the mistake is not passing the file object file to the readchomp function. Make sure to provide the correct input argument to the function for it to work correctly.
