split_size: Split a vector into chunks of size 'n'

In DesiQuintans/desiderata: Assorted utility functions

Split a vector into chunks of size n

Description

In contrast to desiderata::assign_groups() which splits a vector into n chunks (possibly with a different number of entries per chunk), desiderata::split_size() splits a vector into an arbitrary number of chunks as long as each chunk has n or fewer entries inside it.

Usage

split_size(vec, size)

Arguments

vec	(Vector) Any vector.
size	(Integer) The number of entries per chunk.

Value

A list of dynamic length, where each entry is a chunk from vec of length 1 up to size.
