# Parse A String Into Individual Fields
|
||||
|
||||
Let's say you're reading in data from a file or otherwise dealing with an
|
||||
arbitrary string of data. If that string has a series of values separated by
|
||||
whitespace, you can parse it into individual fields with
|
||||
[`strings.Fields`](https://pkg.go.dev/strings#Fields).
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
import (
|
||||
"fmt"
|
||||
"strings"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
func main() {
|
||||
data := "3 5 2 6 7 1 9"
|
||||
fields := strings.Fields(data)
|
||||
|
||||
fmt.Printf("Fields: %v", fields)
|
||||
// [3 5 2 6 7 1 9]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Here is another example where we can see that `strings.Fields` deals with
|
||||
multiple whitespace and surrounding whitespace:
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
import (
|
||||
"fmt"
|
||||
"strings"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
func main() {
|
||||
data := " go java c++ rust "
|
||||
fields := strings.Fields(data)
|
||||
|
||||
fmt.Printf("%v", fields)
|
||||
// [go java c++ rust]
|
||||
}

# Fetch Specific Number Of Results
|
||||
|
||||
If you pull up just about any intro to PostgreSQL (or even SQL), one of the
|
||||
first things they are going to teach you is the `limit` clause. This is taught
|
||||
as _the_ way for limiting the result set to a specific number of rows.
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
> select title from books limit 4;
|
||||
+-----------------------+
|
||||
| title |
|
||||
|-----------------------|
|
||||
| The Secret History |
|
||||
| A Gentleman in Moscow |
|
||||
| Exhalation: Stores |
|
||||
| Annihilation |
|
||||
+-----------------------+
|
||||
SELECT 4
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You might be as surprised as I was to learn that `limit` is not part of the SQL
|
||||
standard. It is extremely common for this use case, but the SQL standard
|
||||
defines `fetch first N rows only` as the way to fetch a specific number of
|
||||
rows. As we can see, [it works identically to `limit
|
||||
N`](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-select.html#SQL-LIMIT).
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
> select title from books fetch first 4 rows only;
|
||||
+-----------------------+
|
||||
| title |
|
||||
|-----------------------|
|
||||
| The Secret History |
|
||||
| A Gentleman in Moscow |
|
||||
| Exhalation: Stores |
|
||||
| Annihilation |
|
||||
+-----------------------+
|
||||
SELECT 4
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `rows` and `row` keywords are interchangeable which makes statements more
|
||||
readable if, for instance, you're doing `... fetch first 1 row only`.
