package main import ( "fmt" "strings" ) func main() { data := "Peter,Manager,London,2019-10-12" // Split the string based on delimiter "," result := strings.Split(data, ",") fmt.Println("\nInput : ", data) fmt.Println("\nResult : ", result) // print the length. fmt.Println("\nLength of String slice: ",len(result)) // Returns the array of strings. fmt.Println("\n ---- Name,Designation,Location,Hire_Date ----") for i := range result { fmt.Println(result[i]) } } |
The slice of sub string are stored in the result variable. Since the returned values are array of strings, the for loop is used to print each values as below.
