``bash npm i string-split-by-whitespace`

`Quick Take`

`js import { strict as assert } from "assert";

import { splitByW } from "string-split-by-whitespace";

// Split by whitespace is easy - use native String.prototype.split() assert.deepEqual("abc def ghi".split(/\s+/), ["abc", "def", "ghi"]);

const source = "\n \n a\t \nb \n \t";

// this program is nearly equivalent to regex-based split: assert.deepEqual(source.split(/\s+/), ["", "a", "b", ""]); assert.deepEqual(splitByW(source), ["a", "b"]); // regex-based split needs more filtration but it's native solution

// ADDITIONALLY...

// this program allows to exclude certain index ranges: assert.deepEqual( splitByW("a b c d e", { ignoreRanges: [[0, 2]], // that's "a" and space after it }), ["b", "c", "d", "e"], );``
