I am using bash and I have a single **column** **(not row)** in csv with no headers- samplefile.csv

```
111 
222 
333 
444 
555 
666 
777 
888

```

I am looking to split this into (say)2 csv files of **4 rows and a single column** each in this case (if odd number say 9 rows then 5 and 4) csv files with data 

output1.csv (1 column 4 rows)

```
111
222
333
444

```

and output2.csv (1 column and 4 rows)

```
555
666
777
888

```

Csplit does not create csv files as shown here
[split a file into x files where file names are numbered](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12995050/split-a-file-into-x-files-where-file-names-are-numbered#new-answer) 

Any suggestions?
