Create batches in linq

Question

Can someone suggest a way to create batches of a certain size in linq?

Ideally I want to be able to perform operations in chunks of some configurable amount.

Answer 1

I know everybody used complex systems to do this work, and I really don't get it why. Take and skip will allow all those operations using the common select with Func transform function. Like:

public IEnumerable> Buffer(IEnumerable source, int size)=>
    source.Select((item, index) => source.Skip(size * index).Take(size)).TakeWhile(bucket => bucket.Any());
