This approach involves iterating over the array using a loop and extracting subarrays using slicing. The loop increments by the chunk size in each iteration, thus effectively slicing the array into chunks of the desired size.
Time Complexity: O(n), where n is the number of elements in the array.
Space Complexity: O(n), storing the entire chunked array requires space proportional to the input size.

std::vector<std::vector<int>> chunkArray(const std::vector<int>& arr, int size) {
std::vector<std::vector<int>> chunked;
for (int i = 0; i < arr.size(); i += size) {
std::vector<int> chunk;
for (int j = i; j < i + size && j < arr.size(); j++) {
chunk.push_back(arr[j]);
}
chunked.push_back(chunk);
}
return chunked;
}The chunkArray function iterates over arr with a step size of size. In each step, a vector chunk is populated with elements from arr starting from index i to i + size, and this chunk is added to the result.
This approach uses simple arithmetic operations to determine when to create a new subarray. Using the modulus operator allows checking if the number of currently collected elements is equal to the chunk size, upon which a new subarray is started.
Time Complexity: O(n), where n is the number of elements in the array.
Space Complexity: O(n), because the additional space needed is proportional to the input size.
