Used this for splitting Yahoo Q&A dataset

    count = 0
    file_count = 1
    with open('filepath') as f:

    current_file = ""

    for line in f:
        current_file = current_file + line

        if "" in line:
            count = count + 1

        if count==50000:
            current_file = current_file + ""
            with open('filepath/Split/file_' +str(file_count)+'.xml' , 'w') as split:
                split.write(current_file)
            file_count = file_count + 1
            current_file = "\n"
            count = 0

current_file = current_file + ""
with open('filepath/Split/file_' +str(file_count)+'.xml' , 'w') as split:
    split.write(current_file)
