Code:
 1186
 5556
 90844

 7722
 12
 7890.6
 78.52
 6679
 
 3455
 9867
 1127
 5642

..N so many records like this.

I want to split this file into multiple files like cluster1.txt, cluster2.txt, cluster3.txt, ..... clusterN.txt.

cluster1.txt should be like:
Code:
 1186
 5556
 90844
 7873

cluster2.txt should be like:
Code:
 7722
 12
 7890.6
 78.52
 6679

..... so on. ..
