# split
> Split a file into pieces.
- Split a file, each split having 10 lines (except the last split):
`split -l {{10}} {{filename}}`
- Split a file into 5 files. File is split such that each split has same size (except the last split):
`split -n {{5}} {{filename}}`
- Split a file with 512 bytes in each split (except the last split; use 512k for kilobytes and 512m for megabytes):
`split -b {{512}} {{filename}}`
- Split a file with at most 512 bytes in each split without breaking lines:
`split -C {{512}} {{filename}}`
