# Zero padding for binary format

I often find myself writing zero padding when debugging binary data because comparing alligned binary strings in terminal is just easier than looking some messy binanry data.

##Usage

```go

package main

import (

	"fmt"

	"github.com/heppu/binary-pad"

	"math/rand"

	"time"

)

const BUF_LEN = 5

func main() {

	rand.Seed(time.Now().UnixNano())

	buf := make([]byte, BUF_LEN)

	readBytesFromDevice(&buf)

	// Print buffer zero padded

	for _, v := range buf {

		fmt.Println(pad.Pad(v))

	}

}

// Fake reading data from device

func readBytesFromDevice(b *[]byte) {

	for i := 0; i < BUF_LEN; i++ {

		(*b)[i] = byte(rand.Intn(int(^uint8(0))))

	}

}

```
