Re: [Haskell-beginners] Haskell equivalent to Clojure's partition fn

Hi Timothy, You might want to check out the split package. Here's the link: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/split On 7/25/15, Timothy Washington wrote:

The music theory package indeed has a working partition function (source here http://rd.slavepianos.org/sw/hmt/Music/Theory/List.hs). The implementation simply *i)* takes `n` from the source list, *ii)* drops by `m` then recurses.

segments :: Int -> Int -> [a] -> [[a]] segments n m p = let q = take n p p' = drop m p in if length q /= n then [] else q : segments n m p'

But that's rather manual. So I played around with this using *chop*, and came up with the *divvy* function. It does exactly what I need.

divvy :: Int -> Int -> [a] -> [[a]] divvy n m lst = chop (\xs -> (take n xs , drop m xs)) lst

...

*take 5 $ partitionClojure 10 1 [0..]* [[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9],[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10],[2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11],[3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12],[4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13]]

Thanks guys. This helped a lot :)

It looks like chunksOf will take you most of the way there. Here's my quick and dirty GHCi session output:
