# atomic [![GoDoc][doc-img]][doc] [![Build Status][ci-img]][ci] [![Coverage Status][cov-img]][cov] [![Go Report Card][reportcard-img]][reportcard] Simple wrappers for primitive types to enforce atomic access. ## Installation `go get -u go.uber.org/atomic` ## 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. ```go var atom atomic.Uint32 atom.Store(42) atom.Sub(2) atom.CAS(40, 11) ``` See the [documentation][doc] for a complete API specification. ## Development Status Stable. <hr> Released under the [MIT License](LICENSE.txt).
