title: Convert string to float32?
body: <p>There is an input that I need to read from the console as a string, then manipulate the string and convert some of it to <code>float32</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>float, _ := strconv.ParseFloat(myString, 32)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But it does not work. This is the error I get:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>cannot use float (type float64) as type float32 in field value</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Is there anything else I could do?
  Thanks!</p>
