PURPOSE

The sum_walker PyPI distribution allows one to iterate over increasing sums of a certain number (e.g: 2 or 3) of elements out of a stream of increasing integers.

# different ways:

from sum_walker import DWIM_SumWalker

seq = [0, 1]
reached = 2

def request_more():
    nonlocal reached
    nonlocal seq
    seq.append(reached ** 3)
    reached += 1

it = DWIM_SumWalker(2, seq, request_more)
for sum_, coords in it:
    len_ = len(coords)
    if len_ > 1:
        print("{}   {}      {}".format(
            len_, sum_, " ; ".join(
                [" + ".join(["{} ** 3".format(x) for x in c])
                 for c in coords])))
