data processing: every Nth item

billy gomberg's icon

hey forum - I'm looking to sort 'n' shape data from [jit.histogram] and other objects that dump a list to multisliders, feeling like a real rookie on [zl]. I want to filter the list dumps to give me every Nth item in the list. yes I've gone over the data processing tutorials and [zl] helps. clues and pointers are appreciated! thanks gang.

Something with zl iter N? Note that it will always output the first element of the list.

just an update for posterity:

I ended up using jasch's [slicelist] object for this instead. got my lists blowing up all over the place.
