另一个使用groupby和index//n作为键来分组字母的解决方案:

from itertools import groupby

text = "abcdefghij"
n = 3

result = []
for idx, chunk in groupby(text, key=lambda x: x.index//n):
    result.append("".join(chunk))

# result = ['abc', 'def', 'ghi', 'j']

使用groupby的解决方案:

from itertools import groupby, chain, repeat, cycle

text = "wwworldggggreattecchemggpwwwzaz"
n = 3
c = cycle(chain(repeat(0, n), repeat(1, n)))
res = ["".join(g) for _, g in groupby(text, lambda x: next(c))]
print(res)

输出:

['www', 'orl', 'dgg', 'ggr', 'eat', 'tec', 'che', 'mgg', 'pww', 'wza', 'z']

试试下面的代码:

from itertools import islice

def split_every(n, iterable):
    i = iter(iterable)
    piece = list(islice(i, n))
    while piece:
        yield piece
        piece = list(islice(i, n))

s = '1234567890'
print list(split_every(2, list(s)))

你可以使用itertools中的grouper()方法:

Python 2. x:

from itertools import izip_longest    

def grouper(iterable, n, fillvalue=None):
    "Collect data into fixed-length chunks or blocks"
    # grouper('ABCDEFG', 3, 'x') --> ABC DEF Gxx
    args = [iter(iterable)] * n
    return izip_longest(fillvalue=fillvalue, *args)

Python 3. x:

from itertools import zip_longest

def grouper(iterable, n, fillvalue=None):
    "Collect data into fixed-length chunks or blocks"
    # grouper('ABCDEFG', 3, 'x') --> ABC DEF Gxx"
    args = [iter(iterable)] * n
    return zip_longest(*args, fillvalue=fillvalue)

这些函数是内存高效的，并且适用于任何可迭代对象。

为了完整，你可以用regex来完成:

>>> import re
>>> re.findall('..','1234567890')
['12', '34', '56', '78', '90']

对于奇数个字符，你可以这样做:

>>> import re
>>> re.findall('..?', '123456789')
['12', '34', '56', '78', '9']

你也可以这样做，简化正则表达式为更长的块:

>>> import re
>>> re.findall('.{1,2}', '123456789')
['12', '34', '56', '78', '9']

如果字符串很长，可以使用re.finditer逐块生成。

我喜欢这个解决方案:

s = '1234567890'
o = []
while s:
    o.append(s[:2])
    s = s[2:]
