numpy.split — NumPy v2.2 Manual (original) (raw)
numpy.split(ary, indices_or_sections, axis=0)[source]#
Split an array into multiple sub-arrays as views into ary.
Parameters:
aryndarray
Array to be divided into sub-arrays.
indices_or_sectionsint or 1-D array
If indices_or_sections is an integer, N, the array will be divided into N equal arrays along axis. If such a split is not possible, an error is raised.
If indices_or_sections is a 1-D array of sorted integers, the entries indicate where along axis the array is split. For example,[2, 3]
would, for axis=0
, result in
- ary[:2]
- ary[2:3]
- ary[3:]
If an index exceeds the dimension of the array along axis, an empty sub-array is returned correspondingly.
axisint, optional
The axis along which to split, default is 0.
Returns:
sub-arrayslist of ndarrays
A list of sub-arrays as views into ary.
Raises:
ValueError
If indices_or_sections is given as an integer, but a split does not result in equal division.
