### Converting to Integer using spf13/cast in Go

Source: https://github.com/spf13/cast/blob/master/README.md

This example illustrates the usage of the cast.ToInt function to convert diverse data types into an integer. It demonstrates conversions from numbers, strings representing numbers, boolean values (true becomes 1, false becomes 0), interface types, and nil, returning the integer value or 0 for inputs that cannot be converted or are nil.

```Go
cast.ToInt(8)                  // 8
cast.ToInt(8.31)               // 8
cast.ToInt("8")                // 8
cast.ToInt(true)               // 1
cast.ToInt(false)              // 0

var eight interface{} = 8
cast.ToInt(eight)              // 8
cast.ToInt(nil)                // 0
```

### Converting to String using spf13/cast in Go

Source: https://github.com/spf13/cast/blob/master/README.md

This snippet shows how to use the cast.ToString function to convert different data types into their string representation. It highlights the function's ability to handle various inputs, including primitive types, byte slices, nil, and interface values, returning the string equivalent or an empty string for nil.

```Go
cast.ToString("mayonegg")         // "mayonegg"
cast.ToString(8)                  // "8"
cast.ToString(8.31)               // "8.31"
cast.ToString([]byte("one time")) // "one time"
cast.ToString(nil)                // ""

var foo interface{} = "one more time"
cast.ToString(foo)                // "one more time"
```
