Appending to a String or Byte Array, Which is faster?

# Benchmarks

```go
// About 0.11 Seconds
>> Bytes Result: (1288890) in 11796900ns

// About 5.17 Seconds
>> Strings Result: (1288890) in 5179652000ns
```

# Functions

```go
// Test Bytes Method
func TestBytes(n int) {
// Perform 'n' iterations
for i := 0; i < n; i++ {
// Append the string to the bytes array
bytes = append(bytes, []byte(fmt.Sprintf("Bytes_: %d", i))...)
}
}

// Test Strings Method
func TestStrings(n int) {
// Perform 'n' iterations
for i := 0; i < n; i++ {
// Append the string to the str variable
str += fmt.Sprintf("String: %d", i)
}
}
```
