class nltk.islice¶

islice(iterable, [start,] stop [, step]) –> islice object

Return an iterator whose next() method returns selected values from an iterable. If start is specified, will skip all preceding elements; otherwise, start defaults to zero. Step defaults to one. If specified as another value, step determines how many values are skipped between successive calls. Works like a slice() on a list but returns an iterator.
