#
# Here's a generator that yields the chunks you want:
#
# def chunks(l, n):
#    """Yield successive n-sized chunks from l."""
#    for i in range(0, len(l), n):
#        yield l[i:i+n]
#
# The issue here is that the chunks are not evenly sized chunks
#

__all__ = ["split_into_chunks"]


try:
    range = xrange  # py2
except:
    pass  # py3

    """Split a list evenly into N chunks

        >>> list(split_into_chunks(data, 3))
