## Description
<section id='description'>
Write a function that splits an array (first argument) into groups the length of <code>size</code> (second argument) and returns them as a two-dimensional array.
Remember to use <a href="http://forum.freecodecamp.org/t/how-to-get-help-when-you-are-stuck/19514" target="_blank">Read-Search-Ask</a> if you get stuck. Write your own code.
