Taking a string and splitting it into an array of strings in Golang

I am trying to take an array and split it into an array of strings, this is my code:

if split != "" {

    for i := 0; i < len(split); i++ {

        for j := 0; j < len(split); j += 0 {

            splits := []byte(split)

            if splits[i] == ' ' {


                result := split[i] - split[j]

                for k := 0; k <= i; k++ {

                    fitting := make([]byte, result)
                    fitting[k] = splits[k]
                    fmt.Println(fitting[k])

                    if k > i-1 {

                        fittings := string(fitting[:])
                        word := []string{}
                        words := append(word, fittings)
                        fmt.Println(split, words)
                    }
                }

            }
        }
    }
}
return Strings(split)

and this is my test case:

fmt.Println(actual, expected)

for i := 0; i < len(expected); i++ {

    if actual[i] != expected[i] {
        t.Errorf("does not match")
        t.Fail()
    }

}
}

None of it is really working.

I just need to know how I could possibly take a string such as "hi li le" and make it into an array of strings such as ["hi","li","le"]

I would like to respond this with simple a simple example:

s := "hi li le"
arr := strings.Split(s, " ")
fmt.Println(arr)

Note: Make sure to import strings & fmt in your package.

Yes with strings.Split or strings.Fields.

for _, word := range strings.Fields("hi li le") {
    fmt.Println(word)
}

Here's a way to do it manually, for illustration.

func split(tosplit string, sep rune) []string {
    var fields []string

    last := 0
    for i,c := range tosplit {
        if c == sep {
            // Found the separator, append a slice
            fields = append(fields, string(tosplit[last:i]))
            last = i + 1
        } 
    }

    // Don't forget the last field
    fields = append(fields, string(tosplit[last:]))

    return fields
}

func main() {
    str := "hello world stuff"
    for _,field := range split(str, ' ') {
        fmt.Println(field)
    }
}
