I like the subset length n component from Pieter to which I cannot find the link to.

This component has been such a time saver for me lately.

download it and then drag it from the windows folder to the canvas. It will automatically be added to your user components. These usually get placed in the Extra tab but it does depend on the creator as to where they have assigned it to be on the ribbon. Logically this could be a Sets Tab > List Panel component.

If the drag and drop method does not work then Go to the Grasshopper File Menu and select Special Folders --> User Objects Folder. This will open the location to manually place the .ghuser component in for inclusion in GH when it loads

the simplist solution to what you asked for in the picture is path mapper.

it lets you rearrange subtrees be identifying a source path and a target path on how you want it changed.

as I understand it, {a;b}(i) is the standard syntax of a path. The letters can be any variable but the {;}() is the important stuff. \4 means group every 4 i's into the same target path.

Danny Boyes wrote a great starter guide to the mapper.

I also dragged out some culling components which are other great ways to break paths and lists down into the way you want it organized, when some logic is required. the best thing to do is mouse over their inputs and play with them, found under sets->sequence. sorry for the typos in the picture my laptops keyboard is so tiny.

Pieters component is still the simplist. You literally just tell it the number in which to split the list. In this case you just insert the list and the number 4 as inputs.
