package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "math/rand"
    "strings"
    "time"
)

// Function to remove a random word from the input string
func removeRandomWord(input string) string {
    words := strings.Fields(input) // Split string into words
    if len(words) == 0 {
        return input
    }

    rand.Seed(time.Now().UnixNano()) // Seed the random number generator
    randomIndex := rand.Intn(len(words)) // Get a random index

    // Remove the word at the selected index
    words = append(words[:randomIndex], words[randomIndex+1:]...)

    return strings.Join(words, " ")
}

func main() {
    str := "I'm not clumsy The floor just hates me"
    result := removeRandomWord(str)

    fmt.Println(result)
}

 
 
/*
run:
 
I'm not clumsy The just hates me
 
*/
