strings.FieldsFunc() Function in Golang With Examples

// Golang program to illustrate the
// strings.FieldsFunc() Function

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "strings"
    "unicode"
)

func main() {

    // f is a function which returns true if the
    // c is number and false otherwise
    f := func(c rune) bool {
        return unicode.IsNumber(c)
    }

    // FieldsFunc() function splits the string passed
    // on the return values of the function f
    // String will therefore be split when a number
    // is encontered and returns all non-numbers
    fmt.Printf("Fields are: %q\n", 
       strings.FieldsFunc("ABC123PQR456XYZ789", f))
}

    // The string will split when a space or a
    // full stop is encontered and returns all non-numbers
