create_partitions

Splits a vector of a specified length into nearly equal partitions.

This function creates a partition vector where each partition is of equal size, except the last partition which may be smaller depending on the vector length and the number of equal parts specified. Each element in the partition vector represents the partition number.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
vector_length	int	The total length of the vector to be partitioned.	required
equal_parts	int	The number of equal parts to divide the vector. Defaults to 100.	100

Returns:

Type	Description
	numpy.ndarray: An array where each element represents the partition number for each element in the original vector.

Examples:

>>> create_partitions(10, 3)
array([1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3])
