Python: Generate an infinite cycle of elements from an iterable

Python Itertools: Exercise-5 with Solution

Write a Python program to generate an infinite cycle of elements from an iterable.
Note: Iterable should be a list or a string or a dictionary, etc.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

import itertools as it
def cycle_data(iter):
    return it.cycle(iter)
# Following  loops will run for ever    
#List
result = cycle_data(['A','B','C','D'])
print("The said function print never-ending items:")
for i in result:
    print(i)

#String
result = cycle_data('Python itertools')
print("The said function print never-ending items:")
for i in result:
    print(i)

Sample Output:

The said function print never-ending items:
A
B
C
D
A
B
C
D
A
B
C
D
A
B
C
D
A
B
....

Next: Write a Python program to make an iterator that drops elements from the iterable as soon as an element is a positive number.
