# numpy.dsplit

`numpy.``dsplit`(ary, indices_or_sections)

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

  Please refer to the `split` documentation. `dsplit` is equivalent to `split` with `axis=2`, the array is always split along the third axis provided the array dimension is greater than or equal to 3.

  `split`
    Split an array into multiple sub-arrays of equal size.

  Examples

      >>> x = np.arange(16.0).reshape(2, 2, 4)
      >>> x
      array([[[  0.,   1.,   2.,   3.],
              [  4.,   5.,   6.,   7.]],
             [[  8.,   9.,  10.,  11.],
              [ 12.,  13.,  14.,  15.]]])
      >>> np.dsplit(x, 2)
      [array([[[  0.,   1.],
              [  4.,   5.]],
             [[  8.,   9.],
              [ 12.,  13.]]]),
       array([[[  2.,   3.],
              [  6.,   7.]],
             [[ 10.,  11.],
              [ 14.,  15.]]])]
      >>> np.dsplit(x, np.array([3, 6]))
      [array([[[  0.,   1.,   2.],
              [  4.,   5.,   6.]],
             [[  8.,   9.,  10.],
              [ 12.,  13.,  14.]]]),
       array([[[  3.],
              [  7.]],
             [[ 11.],
              [ 15.]]]),
       array([], dtype=float64)]
