I am looking for a function like my.blockwisesum(vector, n) that computes sums of disjoint subsequences of length n from vector and can work with vector lengths that are not a multiple of n.
It should give me for instance my.blockwisesum(1:10, 3) == c(6, 15, 24, 10) Is there a builtin function that can do this? One could do it by coercing the vector into a matrix of width n, and then use apply, but that is cumbersome if the length is not divisible by n, is it not? Any other ideas?
