Split an array into multiple sub-arrays vertically (row-wise).
Please refer to the split documentation. vsplit is equivalent to split with axis=0 (default), the array is always split along the first axis regardless of the array dimension.

Examples
>>> x = np.arange(16.0).reshape(4, 4)
>>> x
array([[ 0., 1., 2., 3.],
[ 4., 5., 6., 7.],
[ 8., 9., 10., 11.],
[ 12., 13., 14., 15.]])
>>> np.vsplit(x, 2)
[array([[ 0., 1., 2., 3.],
[ 4., 5., 6., 7.]]),
array([[ 8., 9., 10., 11.],
[ 12., 13., 14., 15.]])]
>>> np.vsplit(x, np.array([3, 6]))
[array([[ 0., 1., 2., 3.],
[ 4., 5., 6., 7.],
[ 8., 9., 10., 11.]]),
array([[ 12., 13., 14., 15.]]),
array([], dtype=float64)]
With a higher dimensional array the split is still along the first axis.
>>> x = np.arange(8.0).reshape(2, 2, 2)
>>> x
array([[[ 0., 1.],
[ 2., 3.]],
[[ 4., 5.],
[ 6., 7.]]])
>>> np.vsplit(x, 2)
[array([[[ 0., 1.],
[ 2., 3.]]]),
array([[[ 4., 5.],
[ 6., 7.]]])]
