SAGE has the flatten() function for nested lists. But often one needs to 
make nested lists of certain length out of single flat list. For instance, 
turn
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

into
[[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9]]

 Mathematica has split() function for that, but I can't find any identical 
function in SAGE. Is there any built-in function I don't know of? And if 
not, why not implement it, so the user wouldn't have to reinvent the wheel 
each time since such functionality is simple and often needed?
