Iterate over a python sequence in multiples of n?

Question

How do I process the elements of a sequence in batches, idiomatically?

For example, with the sequence \"abcdef\" and a batch size of 2, I would like to do something

Answer 1

From the docs of more_itertools: more_itertools.chunked()

more_itertools.chunked(iterable, n)

Break an iterable into lists of a given length:

>>> list(chunked([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7], 3))
[[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7]]

If the length of iterable is not evenly divisible by n, the last returned list will be shorter.
