Why we use different int in Go :

int8, int16 :

when working with large data sets.
CPU packs multiple variables into its registers.
requires less bits

int16, int32 :
If you're dealing with a file format or protocol
CPU uses more registers or more space in a single register.
it requires more number of bits to store the data internally
