windowed

fun <T> Sequence<T>.windowed(size: Int, step: Int = 1, partialWindows: Boolean = false): Sequence<List<T>>(source)

Returns a sequence of snapshots of the window of the given size sliding along this sequence with the given step, where each snapshot is a list.

Several last lists may have fewer elements than the given size.

Both size and step must be positive and can be greater than the number of elements in this sequence.

Since Kotlin

1.2

Parameters

size

the number of elements to take in each window

step

the number of elements to move the window forward by on an each step, by default 1

partialWindows

controls whether or not to keep partial windows in the end if any, by default false which means partial windows won't be preserved

Samples

import kotlin.test.*

fun main() { 
   //sampleStart 
   val sequence = generateSequence(1) { it + 1 }

val windows = sequence.windowed(size = 5, step = 1)
println(windows.take(4).toList()) // [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [2, 3, 4, 5, 6], [3, 4, 5, 6, 7], [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]]

val moreSparseWindows = sequence.windowed(size = 5, step = 3)
println(moreSparseWindows.take(4).toList()) // [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [4, 5, 6, 7, 8], [7, 8, 9, 10, 11], [10, 11, 12, 13, 14]]

val fullWindows = sequence.take(10).windowed(size = 5, step = 3)
println(fullWindows.toList()) // [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]]

val partialWindows = sequence.take(10).windowed(size = 5, step = 3, partialWindows = true)
println(partialWindows.toList()) // [[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [4, 5, 6, 7, 8], [7, 8, 9, 10], [10]] 
   //sampleEnd
}

fun <T, R> Sequence<T>.windowed(size: Int, step: Int = 1, partialWindows: Boolean = false, transform: (List<T>) -> R): Sequence<R>(source)

Returns a sequence of results of applying the given transform function to an each list representing a view over the window of the given size sliding along this sequence with the given step.

Note that the list passed to the transform function is ephemeral and is valid only inside that function. You should not store it or allow it to escape in some way, unless you made a snapshot of it. Several last lists may have fewer elements than the given size.

Both size and step must be positive and can be greater than the number of elements in this sequence.

Parameters

size

the number of elements to take in each window

step

the number of elements to move the window forward by on an each step, by default 1

partialWindows

controls whether or not to keep partial windows in the end if any, by default false which means partial windows won't be preserved

fun main() { 
   //sampleStart 
   val dataPoints = sequenceOf(10, 15, 18, 25, 19, 21, 14, 8, 5)

val averaged = dataPoints.windowed(size = 4, step = 1, partialWindows = true) { window -> window.average() }
println(averaged.toList()) // [17.0, 19.25, 20.75, 19.75, 15.5, 12.0, 9.0, 6.5, 5.0]

val averagedNoPartialWindows = dataPoints.windowed(size = 4, step = 1).map { it.average() }
println(averagedNoPartialWindows.toList()) // [17.0, 19.25, 20.75, 19.75, 15.5, 12.0] 
   //sampleEnd
