random state in test train split code example

Example 1: random_state

Here you pass an integer, which will act as the seed for the random number generator during the split. Or, you can also pass an instance of the RandomState class, which will become the number generator. If you don’t pass anything, the RandomState instance used by np.random will be used instead.

Example 2: train dev test split sklearn

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test 
    = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, random_state=1)

 X_train, X_val, y_train, y_val 
    = train_test_split(X_train, y_train, test_size=0.25, random_state=1) # 0.25 x 0.8 = 0.2
