New submission from Paddy McCarthy: In the zip section of the documentation, e.g. https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#zip There is mention of an idiom for clustering a data series into n-length groups that I seem to only come across when people are explaining how it works on blog entries such as the three mentioned here: http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/2z4rv4/a_function_for_partitioning_python_arrays/cpfvwun?context=3
It is not a straight-forward bit of code and so I think it should either be explained in more detail in the documentation or removed as an idiom, or I guess it could be encapsulated in a function and added to the stdlib. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 238365 nosy: Paddy McCarthy, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: idiom for clustering a data series into n-length groups type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23695> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
