Itertools
Explore how to use Python's itertools alongside generators and iterators to write clean, flexible code that processes data lazily and efficiently. Understand the benefits of keeping objects independent and using composable iterator chains to improve maintainability while balancing memory and CPU usage.
We'll cover the following...
Working with iterable objects has the advantage that the code blends better with Python itself because iteration is a key component of the language. Besides that, we can take full advantage of the itertools module. Actually, the sequence() generator we just created is fairly similar to itertools.count(). However, there is more we can do.
Use of itertools
One of the nicest things about iterators, generators, and itertools is that they are composable objects that can be chained together. ...
