How to Split a List into Chunks in Python
Split a list into fixed-size sublists using a simple list comprehension with slicing.
def chunk_list(lst, size):
"""Split a list into sublists of given size."""
return [lst[i:i + size] for i in range(0, len(lst), size)]
if __name__ == "__main__":
sample = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
print(chunk_list(sample, 3))Batch Rows in Chunks with a Generator in Python
Group a list of row dicts into fixed-size chunks using a generator that yields one slice per call.
from typing import Iterator, List
def batch_rows(rows: List[dict], batch_size: int) -> Iterator[List[dict]]:
for i in range(0, len(rows), batch_size):
yield rows[i:i + batch_size]
if __name__ == "__main__":
sample_rows = [
{"id": 1, "name": "Alice"},
{"id": 2, "name": "Bob"},
…How to Implement a Batch Requests Flush Interval in Python
A simple async batcher that accumulates items and flushes them either when a max batch size is reached or after a time-based flush interval.
import asyncio
from collections import deque
class Batcher:
def __init__(self, flush_interval=0.5, max_batch=5):
self.flush_interval = flush_interval
self.max_batch = max_batch
self.queue = deque()
self.lock = asyncio.Lock()
async def add(self, item):

Create a lightweight MockRedis class that simulates Redis pipeline batching with SET, GET, and DELETE operations for testing without a live server.
import redis
import time
class MockRedis:
def __init__(self):
self.data = {}
def pipeline(self):
return MockPipeline(self)
def execute(self, commands):
results = []
