How do I chunk dicts in Python with standard library only?

In Python, you can chunk a dictionary into smaller dictionaries using standard library functions without the need for external packages. This process involves splitting a large dictionary into smaller ones based on a specified size. Here’s an example of how to accomplish this:


def chunk_dict(d, chunk_size):
    """Yield successive chunks of dictionary"""
    it = iter(d)
    for _ in range(0, len(d), chunk_size):
        yield {k: d[k] for k in islice(it, chunk_size)}

# Example usage
my_dict = {i: i * 10 for i in range(1, 21)}  # A sample dictionary
chunk_size = 5
for chunk in chunk_dict(my_dict, chunk_size):
    print(chunk)
