While looking to split a multiline and space separated string and not having any luck with `strings.Split()` I came across this somewhat oddly names function:
```go
import (
"fmt"
"strings"
)
func main() {
input := `This is
a multiline, space
separated string`
output := strings.Fields(input)
fmt.Println(output) // ["This", "is", "a", "multiline,", "space", "separated", "string"]
}
```
