is there an itertor of chunks?

[Skaperen]

None of the itertools do what you want, but at the bottom of the page there are recipes that show how to use itertools to make other tools. grouper does not do what you want, but sliding_window does.

for a step interval of 1 it looks like it can do that. but what if i want a step interval of N? oh wait, selecting every Nth item of the returned list would be that for a step interval of N. let's see, now, how to slice an interval of N.
