split(t(), integer()) :: {list(), list()}

Splits the enumerable into two enumerables, leaving count elements in the first one.

If count is a negative number, it starts counting from the back to the beginning of the enumerable.

Be aware that a negative count implies the enumerable will be enumerated twice: once to calculate the position, and a second time to do the actual splitting.

Examples

iex> Enum.split([1, 2, 3], 2)
{[1, 2], [3]}

iex> Enum.split([1, 2, 3], 10)
{[1, 2, 3], []}

iex> Enum.split([1, 2, 3], 0)
{[], [1, 2, 3]}

iex> Enum.split([1, 2, 3], -1)
{[1, 2], [3]}

iex> Enum.split([1, 2, 3], -5)
{[], [1, 2, 3]}
