# stratifiedSplit(on:_:by:randomSeed:)

Generates two data frames by randomly splitting the rows of two columns, which you select by column identifiers, into strata.

## Declaration

```swift
func stratifiedSplit<T0, T1>(on columnID0: ColumnID<T0>, _ columnID1: ColumnID<T1>, by proportion: Double, randomSeed: Int? = nil) -> (DataFrame, DataFrame) where T0 : Hashable, T1 : Hashable
```

## Parameters

- `columnID0`: A column identifier.
- `columnID1`: Another column identifier.
- `proportion`: A proportion in the range [0.0, 1.0].
- `randomSeed`: A seed number for a random-number generator.

## Return Value

Return Value A tuple of two data frames.
