Break *iterable* into lists of length *n*:
>>> list(chunked([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6], 3))
[[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]]
If the length of *iterable* is not evenly divisible by *n*, the last
returned list will be shorter:
>>> list(chunked([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], 3))
[[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8]]
To use a fill-in value instead, see the :func:`grouper` recipe.
:func:`chunked` is useful for splitting up a computation on a large number
of keys into batches, to be pickled and sent off to worker processes. One
example is operations on rows in MySQL, which does not implement
server-side cursors properly and would otherwise load the entire dataset
into RAM on the client.
