Split a List into smaller lists of N size

Question

I am attempting to split a list into a series of smaller lists.

My Problem: My function to split lists doesn\'t split them into lists of the correct

Answer 1

I have a generic method that would take any types include float, and it's been unit-tested, hope it helps:

    /// 

    /// Breaks the list into groups with each group containing no more than the specified group size
    /// 
    /// 
    /// The values.
    /// Size of the group.
    /// 
    public static List> SplitList(IEnumerable values, int groupSize, int? maxCount = null)
    {
        List> result = new List>();
        // Quick and special scenario
        if (values.Count() <= groupSize)
        {
            result.Add(values.ToList());
        }
        else
        {
            List valueList = values.ToList();
            int startIndex = 0;
            int count = valueList.Count;
            int elementCount = 0;

            while (startIndex < count && (!maxCount.HasValue || (maxCount.HasValue && startIndex < maxCount)))
            {
                elementCount = (startIndex + groupSize > count) ? count - startIndex : groupSize;
                result.Add(valueList.GetRange(startIndex, elementCount));
                startIndex += elementCount;
            }
        }


        return result;
    }
