# split(count:alongAxis:)

Splits a tensor into multiple tensors. The tensor is split along dimension axis into count smaller tensors.

## Declaration

```swift
func split(count: Int, alongAxis axis: Int = 0) -> [MLTensor]
```

## Parameters

- `count`: The number of splits to create, must divide the size of dimension axis evenly.
- `axis`: The dimension along which to split this tensor. The axis must be in the range [-rank, rank).

## Return Value

Return Value An array containing the tensor parts.

## Discussion

Discussion For example: // 'value' is a tensor with shape [5, 30] // Split 'value' into 3 tensors along dimension 1: let parts = value.split(count: 3, alongAxis: 1) parts[0] // has shape [5, 10] parts[1] // has shape [5, 10] parts[2] // has shape [5, 10]
