import train_test_split sklearn code example

Example 1: train_size

You have to specify this parameter only if you’re not specifying the test_size. This is the same as test_size, but instead you tell the class what percent of the dataset you want to split as the training set.

Example 2: how to distribute a dataset in train and test using scikit

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
xTrain, xTest, yTrain, yTest = train_test_split(x, y, test_size = 0.2, random_state = 0)
