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"},
…Chunk an Iterable into Batches with a Generator in Python
Yield fixed-size batches from any iterable lazily using itertools.islice inside a generator function.
from itertools import islice
def chunked(iterable, size):
iterator = iter(iterable)
while True:
batch = list(islice(iterator, size))
if not batch:
break
yield batch
if __name__ == "__main__":
data = range(10)
for batch in chunked(data, 3):
print(batch)Browse by section
