Comprehensions & generators
List/dict/set comprehensions, generator expressions, and lazy iteration.
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 Split Data into Chunks and Use Generators in Python
Split a list into fixed-size chunks with a list comprehension and square even numbers lazily with a generator expression.
def split_numbers(data, chunk_size):
return [data[i:i + chunk_size] for i in range(0, len(data), chunk_size)]
def square_even_numbers(numbers):
return (n ** 2 for n in numbers if n % 2 == 0)
if __name__ == "__main__":
sample_data = list(range(1, 21))
chunks = split_numbers(sample_data, 5)
