Below examples illustrates the split() method in collect.js:
Example 1:
// Acquiring collect.js constant
const collect = require('collect.js');
let arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7];
const collection = collect(arr);
const groups = collection.split(4);
let newObject = groups.all();
console.log(newObject);
Output:
[[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6], [7]]
Example 2:
// Acquiring collect.js constant
const collect = require('collect.js');
let arr = [['c', 'c++'], ['java'], ['python', 'c#']]
const collection = collect(arr);
const groups = collection.split(3);
let newObject = groups.all();
console.log(newObject);
Output:
[[['c', 'c++']], [['java']], [['python', 'c#']]]
