I am reading the split --help but I am unsure how to execute this command with the round robin feature, can someone please give me an example

Usage: split [OPTION]... [FILE [PREFIX]]

-n, --number=CHUNKS generate CHUNKS output files; see explanation below

The SIZE argument is an integer and optional unit (example: 10K is 10*1024).
Units are K,M,G,T,P,E,Z,Y (powers of 1024) or KB,MB,... (powers of 1000).

CHUNKS may be:
 N split into N files based on size of input
 K/N output Kth of N to stdout
 l/N split into N files without splitting lines/records
 l/K/N output Kth of N to stdout without splitting lines/records 
--> r/N like 'l' but use round robin distribution
 r/K/N likewise but only output Kth of N to stdout

Example executed in Bash:

# create a testfile with 10 lines
$ printf 'line %sn' 1..10 > testin

# split into 3 files with round robin distribution and numeric suffix (`-d`)
$ split -d -nr/3 testin testout

# show line count
$ wc -l testout*
 4 testout00
 3 testout01
 3 testout02
