Easy way to receive a string from day from time.Now()
I'm trying to get the day as a string from a time.Now() instance.
now := time.Now() // .String() would give me the entire date as a string which I don't need
day := now.Day()) // is what I want but as a String.
So string(day) tells me "can not convert day to string".
For me now.Day().String() would be nice but there is no such method...
I could now try to take time.Now().String() and manipulate until the day is left over. But there should be a easier way to do it...

You can import and use strconv as KibGzr mentioned. Just to give a complete example:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
"strconv"
)
func main() {
now := time.Now()
day := now.Day()
fmt.Printf("%Tn",(day))
fmt.Println(strconv.Itoa(day))
dayString := strconv.Itoa(day)
fmt.Printf("%T",(dayString))
}
