atomic 
Simple wrappers for primitive types to enforce atomic access.
Installation
$ go get -u go.uber.org/atomic@v1
Note: If you are using Go modules, this package will fail to compile with the
import path github.com/uber-go/atomic. To continue using that import path,
you will have to add a replace directive to your go.mod, replacing
github.com/uber-go/atomic with go.uber.org/atomic.
$ go mod edit -replace github.com/uber-go/atomic=go.uber.org/atomic@v1
Usage
The standard library's sync/atomic is powerful, but it's easy to forget which
variables must be accessed atomically. go.uber.org/atomic preserves all the
functionality of the standard library, but wraps the primitive types to
provide a safer, more convenient API.
var atom atomic.Uint32
atom.Store(42)
atom.Sub(2)
atom.CAS(40, 11)
See the documentation for a complete API specification.
