| =head1 ABSTRACT
|
| It is proposed that a new function, C<partition>, be added to Perl.
| C<partition($partition_size, \@list)> would return @list broken into
| references to sub-lists, each one $list_size in size.
This is very similar to what unzip does. Would it be better to combine
them into a single function that could do both operations (and possibly
others) with a flag? In fact, couldn't all this (zip, unzip, partition) be
handled as part of pack and unpack?
