This function divides a given vector into a specified number of smaller chunks. It is useful for partitioning data into more manageable pieces or for parallel processing tasks.
Arguments
- Vector
A numeric or character vector that you want to split.
- NSplit
An integer specifying the number of chunks to split the vector into. It must not exceed the length of the vector.
- Prefix
A string value that serves as the prefix for the names of the chunks in the returned list. Defaults to "Chunk".
Value
A list of vectors, where each vector represents a chunk of the original vector. The names of the list elements are generated using the specified prefix followed by an underscore and the chunk number.
Examples
SplitVector(Vector = seq_len(100), NSplit = 3)
#> $Chunk_1
#> [1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25
#> [26] 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34
#>
#> $Chunk_2
#> [1] 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59
#> [26] 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67
