# invalid-strconv-argument

**Default severity:** `error`

The `strconv` parsing and formatting functions accept only documented number
bases, bit sizes, and floating-point format characters. Invalid constant
arguments always return errors or produce unusable results.

## Bad

```go
strconv.ParseInt(value, 1, 128)
```

## Good

```go
strconv.ParseInt(value, 10, 64)
```
