numpy.split — NumPy v2.6.dev0 Manual

numpy.split(ary, indices_or_sections, axis=0)

[source]

#

Split an array into multiple sub-arrays as views into ary.

Parameters:aryndarrayArray to be divided into sub-arrays.

indices_or_sectionsint or 1-D arrayIf 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, optionalThe axis along which to split, default is 0.

Returns:sub-arrayslist of ndarraysA list of sub-arrays as views into ary.

Raises:ValueErrorIf indices_or_sections is given as an integer, but a split does not result in equal division.

hsplit

Split array into multiple sub-arrays horizontally (column-wise).

vsplit

dsplit

Split array into multiple sub-arrays along the 3rd axis (depth).

concatenate

Join a sequence of arrays along an existing axis.

stack

Join a sequence of arrays along a new axis.

hstack

Stack arrays in sequence horizontally (column wise).

Stack arrays in sequence vertically (row wise).

dstack

Stack arrays in sequence depth wise (along third dimension).

Examples

>>> importnumpyasnp>>> x=np.arange(9.0)>>> np.split(x,3)[array([0., 1., 2.]), array([3., 4., 5.]), array([6., 7., 8.])]>>> x=np.arange(8.0)>>> np.split(x,[3,5,6,10])[array([0., 1., 2.]), array([3., 4.]), array([5.]), array([6., 7.]), array([], dtype=float64)]
