Ammo: Sliding Windows - Python tip of the day

Just a quick Python tip of the day.

I regularly find my self in the position of needing to slice lists with "sliding windows"

Like if I have the list {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8} I would like to return {{1,2},{2,3},{3,4}..etc}

Just found this great way of doing it in dynamo. (I'm sure there are many ways of doing it, but quite simple this one anyways.)

	from itertools import islice
	a=IN[0]
	n=IN[1]
	z = (islice(a, i, None) for i in range(n))
	OUT=zip(*z)
