"itertools" --- 効率的なループ用のイテレータ生成関数群
******************************************************

======================================================================

このモジュールは *イテレータ* を構築する部品を実装しています。プログラ
ム言語 APL, Haskell, SML からアイデアを得ていますが、 Python に適した
形に修正されています。

このモジュールは、高速でメモリ効率に優れ、単独でも組合せても使用するこ
とのできるツールを標準化したものです。同時に、このツール群は "イテレー
タの代数" を構成していて、pure Python で簡潔かつ効率的なツールを作れる
ようにしています。

例えば、SML の作表ツール "tabulate(f)" は "f(0), f(1), ..." のシーケン
スを作成します。同じことを Python では "map()" と "count()" を組合せて
"map(f, count())" という形で実現できます。

これらのツールと組み込み関数は "operator" モジュール内の高速な関数とと
もに使うことで見事に動作します。例えば、乗算演算子を2つのベクトルにわ
たってマップすることで効率的な内積計算を実現できます:
"sum(starmap(operator.mul, zip(vec1, vec2, strict=True)))"。

Itertool関数
============

以下の関数は全て、イテレータを作成して返します。無限長のストリームのイ
テレータを返す関数もあり、この場合にはストリームを中断するような関数か
ループ処理から使用しなければなりません。

itertools.accumulate(iterable[, function, *, initial=None])

   Make an iterator that returns accumulated sums or accumulated
   results from other binary functions.

   The *function* defaults to addition.  The *function* should accept
   two arguments, an accumulated total and a value from the
   *iterable*.

   If an *initial* value is provided, the accumulation will start with
   that value and the output will have one more element than the input
   iterable.

   およそ次と等価です:

      def accumulate(iterable, function=operator.add, *, initial=None):
          'Return running totals'
          # accumulate([1,2,3,4,5]) → 1 3 6 10 15
          # accumulate([1,2,3,4,5], initial=100) → 100 101 103 106 110 115
          # accumulate([1,2,3,4,5], operator.mul) → 1 2 6 24 120

          iterator = iter(iterable)
          total = initial
          if initial is None:
              try:
                  total = next(iterator)
              except StopIteration:
                  return

          yield total
          for element in iterator:
              total = function(total, element)
              yield total

   The *function* argument can be set to "min()" for a running
   minimum, "max()" for a running maximum, or "operator.mul()" for a
   running product.  Amortization tables can be built by accumulating
   interest and applying payments:

      >>> data = [3, 4, 6, 2, 1, 9, 0, 7, 5, 8]
      >>> list(accumulate(data, max))              # running maximum
      [3, 4, 6, 6, 6, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9]
      >>> list(accumulate(data, operator.mul))     # running product
      [3, 12, 72, 144, 144, 1296, 0, 0, 0, 0]

      # Amortize a 5% loan of 1000 with 10 annual payments of 90
      >>> update = lambda balance, payment: round(balance * 1.05) - payment
      >>> list(accumulate(repeat(90, 10), update, initial=1_000))
      [1000, 960, 918, 874, 828, 779, 728, 674, 618, 559, 497]

   最終的な累積値だけを返す類似の関数については "functools.reduce()"
   を見てください。

   Added in version 3.2.

   バージョン 3.3 で変更: Added the optional *function* parameter.

   バージョン 3.8 で変更: オプションの *initial* パラメータが追加され
   ました。

itertools.batched(iterable, n, *, strict=False)

   *iterable* から得られるデータを *n* 個ごとに一つのタプルにまとめま
   す。 一番最後のバッチは *n* 個より少なくなる可能性があります。

   If *strict* is true, will raise a "ValueError" if the final batch
   is shorter than *n*.

   入力の iterable から要素を一つづつ取り出し、サイズが *n* になるまで
   タプルに溜め込みます。 入力の iterable は遅延評価され、次のタプルを
   作るのに必要なだけ要素が取り出されます。 タプルは、個数が *n* に到
   達するか、入力の iterable が尽きるとすぐに出力されます:

      >>> flattened_data = ['roses', 'red', 'violets', 'blue', 'sugar', 'sweet']
      >>> unflattened = list(batched(flattened_data, 2))
      >>> unflattened
      [('roses', 'red'), ('violets', 'blue'), ('sugar', 'sweet')]

   およそ次と等価です:

      def batched(iterable, n, *, strict=False):
          # batched('ABCDEFG', 3) → ABC DEF G
          if n < 1:
              raise ValueError('n must be at least one')
          iterator = iter(iterable)
          while batch := tuple(islice(iterator, n)):
              if strict and len(batch) != n:
                  raise ValueError('batched(): incomplete batch')
              yield batch

   Added in version 3.12.

   バージョン 3.13 で変更: Added the *strict* option.

itertools.chain(*iterables)

   先頭の iterable の全要素を返し、次に2番目の iterable の全要素を返し
   、と全 iterable の要素を返すイテレータを作成します。連続したシーケ
   ンスを一つのシーケンスとして扱う場合に使用します。およそ次と等価で
   す:

      def chain(*iterables):
          # chain('ABC', 'DEF') → A B C D E F
          for iterable in iterables:
              yield from iterable

classmethod chain.from_iterable(iterable)

   "chain()" のためのもう一つのコンストラクタです。遅延評価される
   iterable 引数一つから連鎖した入力を受け取ります。この関数は、以下の
   コードとほぼ等価です:

      def from_iterable(iterables):
          # chain.from_iterable(['ABC', 'DEF']) → A B C D E F
          for iterable in iterables:
              yield from iterable

itertools.combinations(iterable, r)

   入力 *iterable* の要素からなる長さ *r* の部分列を返します。

   The output is a subsequence of "product()" keeping only entries
   that are subsequences of the *iterable*.  The length of the output
   is given by "math.comb()" which computes "n! / r! / (n - r)!" when
   "0 ≤ r ≤ n" or zero when "r > n".

   The combination tuples are emitted in lexicographic order according
   to the order of the input *iterable*. If the input *iterable* is
   sorted, the output tuples will be produced in sorted order.

   Elements are treated as unique based on their position, not on
   their value.  If the input elements are unique, there will be no
   repeated values within each combination.

   およそ次と等価です:

      def combinations(iterable, r):
          # combinations('ABCD', 2) → AB AC AD BC BD CD
          # combinations(range(4), 3) → 012 013 023 123

          pool = tuple(iterable)
          n = len(pool)
          if r > n:
              return
          indices = list(range(r))

          yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
          while True:
              for i in reversed(range(r)):
                  if indices[i] != i + n - r:
                      break
              else:
                  return
              indices[i] += 1
              for j in range(i+1, r):
                  indices[j] = indices[j-1] + 1
              yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)

itertools.combinations_with_replacement(iterable, r)

   入力 *iterable* から、それぞれの要素が複数回現れることを許して、長
   さ *r* の要素の部分列を返します。

   The output is a subsequence of "product()" that keeps only entries
   that are subsequences (with possible repeated elements) of the
   *iterable*.  The number of subsequence returned is "(n + r - 1)! /
   r! / (n - 1)!" when "n > 0".

   The combination tuples are emitted in lexicographic order according
   to the order of the input *iterable*. if the input *iterable* is
   sorted, the output tuples will be produced in sorted order.

   Elements are treated as unique based on their position, not on
   their value.  If the input elements are unique, the generated
   combinations will also be unique.

   およそ次と等価です:

      def combinations_with_replacement(iterable, r):
          # combinations_with_replacement('ABC', 2) → AA AB AC BB BC CC

          pool = tuple(iterable)
          n = len(pool)
          if not n and r:
              return
          indices = [0] * r

          yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)
          while True:
              for i in reversed(range(r)):
                  if indices[i] != n - 1:
                      break
              else:
                  return
              indices[i:] = [indices[i] + 1] * (r - i)
              yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices)

   Added in version 3.1.

itertools.compress(data, selectors)

   Make an iterator that returns elements from *data* where the
   corresponding element in *selectors* is true.  Stops when either
   the *data* or *selectors* iterables have been exhausted.  Roughly
   equivalent to:

      def compress(data, selectors):
          # compress('ABCDEF', [1,0,1,0,1,1]) → A C E F
          return (datum for datum, selector in zip(data, selectors) if selector)

   Added in version 3.1.

itertools.count(start=0, step=1)

   Make an iterator that returns evenly spaced values beginning with
   *start*. Can be used with "map()" to generate consecutive data
   points or with "zip()" to add sequence numbers.  Roughly equivalent
   to:

      def count(start=0, step=1):
          # count(10) → 10 11 12 13 14 ...
          # count(2.5, 0.5) → 2.5 3.0 3.5 ...
          n = start
          while True:
              yield n
              n += step

   When counting with floating-point numbers, better accuracy can
   sometimes be achieved by substituting multiplicative code such as:
   "(start + step * i for i in count())".

   バージョン 3.1 で変更: *step* 引数が追加され、非整数の引数が許され
   るようになりました。

itertools.cycle(iterable)

   Make an iterator returning elements from the *iterable* and saving
   a copy of each.  When the iterable is exhausted, return elements
   from the saved copy.  Repeats indefinitely.  Roughly equivalent to:

      def cycle(iterable):
          # cycle('ABCD') → A B C D A B C D A B C D ...
          saved = []
          for element in iterable:
              yield element
              saved.append(element)
          while saved:
              for element in saved:
                  yield element

   This itertool may require significant auxiliary storage (depending
   on the length of the iterable).

itertools.dropwhile(predicate, iterable)

   Make an iterator that drops elements from the *iterable* while the
   *predicate* is true and afterwards returns every element.  Roughly
   equivalent to:

      def dropwhile(predicate, iterable):
          # dropwhile(lambda x: x<5, [1,4,6,3,8]) → 6 3 8

          iterator = iter(iterable)
          for x in iterator:
              if not predicate(x):
                  yield x
                  break

          for x in iterator:
              yield x

   Note this does not produce *any* output until the predicate first
   becomes false, so this itertool may have a lengthy start-up time.

itertools.filterfalse(predicate, iterable)

   Make an iterator that filters elements from the *iterable*
   returning only those for which the *predicate* returns a false
   value.  If *predicate* is "None", returns the items that are false.
   Roughly equivalent to:

      def filterfalse(predicate, iterable):
          # filterfalse(lambda x: x<5, [1,4,6,3,8]) → 6 8
          if predicate is None:
              predicate = bool
          for x in iterable:
              if not predicate(x):
                  yield x

itertools.groupby(iterable, key=None)

   同じキーをもつような要素からなる *iterable* 中のグループに対して、
   キーとグループを返すようなイテレータを作成します。*key* は各要素に
   対するキー値を計算する関数です。キーを指定しない場合や "None" にし
   た場合、*key* 関数のデフォルトは恒等関数になり要素をそのまま返しま
   す。通常、*iterable* は同じキー関数でソート済みである必要があります
   。

   "groupby()" の操作は Unix の "uniq" フィルターと似ています。 key 関
   数の値が変わるたびに休止または新しいグループを生成します (このため
   に通常同じ key 関数でソートしておく必要があるのです)。この動作は
   SQL の入力順に関係なく共通の要素を集約する GROUP BY とは違います。

   返されるグループはそれ自体がイテレータで、 "groupby()" と
   *iterable* を共有しています。もととなる *iterable* を共有しているた
   め、 "groupby()" オブジェクトの要素取り出しを先に進めると、それ以前
   の要素であるグループは見えなくなってしまいます。従って、データが後
   で必要な場合にはリストの形で保存しておく必要があります:

      groups = []
      uniquekeys = []
      data = sorted(data, key=keyfunc)
      for k, g in groupby(data, keyfunc):
          groups.append(list(g))      # Store group iterator as a list
          uniquekeys.append(k)

   "groupby()" はおよそ次と等価です:

      def groupby(iterable, key=None):
          # [k for k, g in groupby('AAAABBBCCDAABBB')] → A B C D A B
          # [list(g) for k, g in groupby('AAAABBBCCD')] → AAAA BBB CC D

          keyfunc = (lambda x: x) if key is None else key
          iterator = iter(iterable)
          exhausted = False

          def _grouper(target_key):
              nonlocal curr_value, curr_key, exhausted
              yield curr_value
              for curr_value in iterator:
                  curr_key = keyfunc(curr_value)
                  if curr_key != target_key:
                      return
                  yield curr_value
              exhausted = True

          try:
              curr_value = next(iterator)
          except StopIteration:
              return
          curr_key = keyfunc(curr_value)

          while not exhausted:
              target_key = curr_key
              curr_group = _grouper(target_key)
              yield curr_key, curr_group
              if curr_key == target_key:
                  for _ in curr_group:
                      pass

itertools.islice(iterable, stop)
itertools.islice(iterable, start, stop[, step])

   Make an iterator that returns selected elements from the iterable.
   Works like sequence slicing but does not support negative values
   for *start*, *stop*, or *step*.

   If *start* is zero or "None", iteration starts at zero.  Otherwise,
   elements from the iterable are skipped until *start* is reached.

   If *stop* is "None", iteration continues until the iterator is
   exhausted, if at all.  Otherwise, it stops at the specified
   position.

   If *step* is "None", the step defaults to one.  Elements are
   returned consecutively unless *step* is set higher than one which
   results in items being skipped.

   およそ次と等価です:

      def islice(iterable, *args):
          # islice('ABCDEFG', 2) → A B
          # islice('ABCDEFG', 2, 4) → C D
          # islice('ABCDEFG', 2, None) → C D E F G
          # islice('ABCDEFG', 0, None, 2) → A C E G

          s = slice(*args)
          start = 0 if s.start is None else s.start
          stop = s.stop
          step = 1 if s.step is None else s.step
          if start < 0 or (stop is not None and stop < 0) or step <= 0:
              raise ValueError

          indices = count() if stop is None else range(max(start, stop))
          next_i = start
          for i, element in zip(indices, iterable):
              if i == next_i:
                  yield element
                  next_i += step

itertools.pairwise(iterable)

   Return successive overlapping pairs taken from the input
   *iterable*.

   The number of 2-tuples in the output iterator will be one fewer
   than the number of inputs.  It will be empty if the input iterable
   has fewer than two values.

   およそ次と等価です:

      def pairwise(iterable):
          # pairwise('ABCDEFG') → AB BC CD DE EF FG
          iterator = iter(iterable)
          a = next(iterator, None)
          for b in iterator:
              yield a, b
              a = b

   Added in version 3.10.

itertools.permutations(iterable, r=None)

   Return successive *r* length permutations of elements from the
   *iterable*.

   *r* が指定されない場合や "None" の場合、*r* はデフォルトで
   *iterable* の長さとなり、可能な最長の順列の全てが生成されます。

   The output is a subsequence of "product()" where entries with
   repeated elements have been filtered out.  The length of the output
   is given by "math.perm()" which computes "n! / (n - r)!" when "0 ≤
   r ≤ n" or zero when "r > n".

   The permutation tuples are emitted in lexicographic order according
   to the order of the input *iterable*.  If the input *iterable* is
   sorted, the output tuples will be produced in sorted order.

   Elements are treated as unique based on their position, not on
   their value.  If the input elements are unique, there will be no
   repeated values within a permutation.

   およそ次と等価です:

      def permutations(iterable, r=None):
          # permutations('ABCD', 2) → AB AC AD BA BC BD CA CB CD DA DB DC
          # permutations(range(3)) → 012 021 102 120 201 210

          pool = tuple(iterable)
          n = len(pool)
          r = n if r is None else r
          if r > n:
              return

          indices = list(range(n))
          cycles = list(range(n, n-r, -1))
          yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices[:r])

          while n:
              for i in reversed(range(r)):
                  cycles[i] -= 1
                  if cycles[i] == 0:
                      indices[i:] = indices[i+1:] + indices[i:i+1]
                      cycles[i] = n - i
                  else:
                      j = cycles[i]
                      indices[i], indices[-j] = indices[-j], indices[i]
                      yield tuple(pool[i] for i in indices[:r])
                      break
              else:
                  return

itertools.product(*iterables, repeat=1)

   入力イテラブルのデカルト積です。

   ジェネレータ式の入れ子になった for ループとおよそ等価です。たとえば
   "product(A, B)" は "((x,y) for x in A for y in B)" と同じものを返し
   ます。

   入れ子ループは走行距離計と同じように右端の要素がイテレーションごと
   に更新されていきます。このパターンは辞書式順序を作り出し、入力のイ
   テレート可能オブジェクトたちがソートされていれば、直積タプルもソー
   トされた順に出てきます。

   イテラブル自身との直積を計算するためには、オプションの *repeat* キ
   ーワード引数に繰り返し回数を指定します。たとえば "product(A,
   repeat=4)" は  "product(A, A, A, A)" と同じ意味です。

   この関数は以下のコードとおよそ等価ですが、実際の実装ではメモリ中に
   中間結果を作りません:

      def product(*iterables, repeat=1):
          # product('ABCD', 'xy') → Ax Ay Bx By Cx Cy Dx Dy
          # product(range(2), repeat=3) → 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111

          pools = [tuple(pool) for pool in iterables] * repeat

          result = [[]]
          for pool in pools:
              result = [x+[y] for x in result for y in pool]

          for prod in result:
              yield tuple(prod)

   "product()" は動作する前に、入力のイテラブルを完全に読み取り、直積
   を生成するためにメモリ内に値を蓄えます。したがって、入力が有限の場
   合に限り有用です。

itertools.repeat(object[, times])

   Make an iterator that returns *object* over and over again. Runs
   indefinitely unless the *times* argument is specified.

   およそ次と等価です:

      def repeat(object, times=None):
          # repeat(10, 3) → 10 10 10
          if times is None:
              while True:
                  yield object
          else:
              for i in range(times):
                  yield object

   *repeat* は *map* や *zip* に定数のストリームを与えるためによく利用
   されます:

      >>> list(map(pow, range(10), repeat(2)))
      [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]

itertools.starmap(function, iterable)

   Make an iterator that computes the *function* using arguments
   obtained from the *iterable*.  Used instead of "map()" when
   argument parameters have already been "pre-zipped" into tuples.

   The difference between "map()" and "starmap()" parallels the
   distinction between "function(a,b)" and "function(*c)". Roughly
   equivalent to:

      def starmap(function, iterable):
          # starmap(pow, [(2,5), (3,2), (10,3)]) → 32 9 1000
          for args in iterable:
              yield function(*args)

itertools.takewhile(predicate, iterable)

   Make an iterator that returns elements from the *iterable* as long
   as the *predicate* is true.  Roughly equivalent to:

      def takewhile(predicate, iterable):
          # takewhile(lambda x: x<5, [1,4,6,3,8]) → 1 4
          for x in iterable:
              if not predicate(x):
                  break
              yield x

   Note, the element that first fails the predicate condition is
   consumed from the input iterator and there is no way to access it.
   This could be an issue if an application wants to further consume
   the input iterator after *takewhile* has been run to exhaustion.
   To work around this problem, consider using more-iterools
   before_and_after() instead.

itertools.tee(iterable, n=2)

   一つの iterable から *n* 個の独立したイテレータを返します。

   およそ次と等価です:

      def tee(iterable, n=2):
          iterator = iter(iterable)
          shared_link = [None, None]
          return tuple(_tee(iterator, shared_link) for _ in range(n))

      def _tee(iterator, link):
          try:
              while True:
                  if link[1] is None:
                      link[0] = next(iterator)
                      link[1] = [None, None]
                  value, link = link
                  yield value
          except StopIteration:
              return

   一度 "tee()" が生成されたら、もとの *iterable* を他で使ってはいけま
   せん。さもなければ、 "tee()" オブジェクトの知らない間に *iterable*
   が先の要素に進んでしまうことになります。

   "tee" iterators are not threadsafe. A "RuntimeError" may be raised
   when simultaneously using iterators returned by the same "tee()"
   call, even if the original *iterable* is threadsafe.

   "tee()" はかなり大きなメモリ領域を使用するかもしれません (使用する
   メモリ量はiterableの大きさに依存します)。一般には、一つのイテレータ
   が他のイテレータよりも先にほとんどまたは全ての要素を消費するような
   場合には、 "tee()" よりも "list()" を使った方が高速です。

itertools.zip_longest(*iterables, fillvalue=None)

   Make an iterator that aggregates elements from each of the
   *iterables*.

   If the iterables are of uneven length, missing values are filled-in
   with *fillvalue*.  If not specified, *fillvalue* defaults to
   "None".

   Iteration continues until the longest iterable is exhausted.

   およそ次と等価です:

      def zip_longest(*iterables, fillvalue=None):
          # zip_longest('ABCD', 'xy', fillvalue='-') → Ax By C- D-

          iterators = list(map(iter, iterables))
          num_active = len(iterators)
          if not num_active:
              return

          while True:
              values = []
              for i, iterator in enumerate(iterators):
                  try:
                      value = next(iterator)
                  except StopIteration:
                      num_active -= 1
                      if not num_active:
                          return
                      iterators[i] = repeat(fillvalue)
                      value = fillvalue
                  values.append(value)
              yield tuple(values)

   If one of the iterables is potentially infinite, then the
   "zip_longest()" function should be wrapped with something that
   limits the number of calls (for example "islice()" or
   "takewhile()").


Itertools レシピ
================

この節では、既存の itertools を素材としてツールセットを拡張するための
レシピを示します。

The primary purpose of the itertools recipes is educational.  The
recipes show various ways of thinking about individual tools — for
example, that "chain.from_iterable" is related to the concept of
flattening.  The recipes also give ideas about ways that the tools can
be combined — for example, how "starmap()" and "repeat()" can work
together.  The recipes also show patterns for using itertools with the
"operator" and "collections" modules as well as with the built-in
itertools such as "map()", "filter()", "reversed()", and
"enumerate()".

A secondary purpose of the recipes is to serve as an incubator.  The
"accumulate()", "compress()", and "pairwise()" itertools started out
as recipes.  Currently, the "sliding_window()", "iter_index()", and
"sieve()" recipes are being tested to see whether they prove their
worth.

Substantially all of these recipes and many, many others can be
installed from the more-itertools project found on the Python Package
Index:

   python -m pip install more-itertools

Many of the recipes offer the same high performance as the underlying
toolset. Superior memory performance is kept by processing elements
one at a time rather than bringing the whole iterable into memory all
at once. Code volume is kept small by linking the tools together in a
functional style.  High speed is retained by preferring "vectorized"
building blocks over the use of for-loops and *generators* which incur
interpreter overhead.
