Chunks a list into smaller lists of a specified size.
|
|
|
|
- Use `list()` and `range()` to create a list of the desired `size`.
|
|
- Use `map()` on the list and fill it with splices of the given list.
|
|
- Finally, return the created list.
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
from math import ceil
|
|
|
|
def chunk(lst, size):
|
|
return list(
|
|
map(lambda x: lst[x * size:x * size + size],
|
|
list(range(0, ceil(len(lst) / size)))))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```py
|
|
chunk([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 2) # [[1,2],[3,4],[5]]
|
|
```
