Unpack NumPy array by column

numpy.split splits an array into multiple sub-arrays. In your case, indices_or_sections is 3 since you have 3 columns, and axis = 1 since we're splitting by column.

my_func(numpy.split(array, 3, 1))

You can unpack the transpose of the array in order to use the columns for your function arguments:

my_func(*arr.T)

Here's a simple example:

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

Let's write a function to add the columns together (normally done with x.sum(axis=1) in NumPy):

def add_cols(a, b, c):
    return a+b+c

Then we have:

>>> add_cols(*x.T)
array([15, 18, 21, 24, 27])

NumPy arrays will be unpacked along the first dimension, hence the need to transpose the array.
