My Apologies for the ambiguity on the query ,

1. I need 12 files no matter whatever is the size of the file
2. I think I cant use split function as I have to give either the number of lines per file or the size of each file in case of split.

I just want to know if there is any code that splits the file into n number of file , 'n' being any number.

Hope I am clear now.
