I think it's necessary to add a segment() method to str type or string module. 
This method is used to split a string into m parts and return all cases. With 
segment(), you can avoid tedious calculation and indexing if you want to 
segment a string.

For example:

segment('1234', m=3) -> [('1', '2', '34'), ('1', '23', '4'), ('12', '3', '4')]
segment('12345', m=3) -> [('1', '2', '345'), ('1', '23', '45'), ('1', '234', 
'5'), ('12', '3', '45'), ('12', '34', '5'), ('123', '4', '5')]


I hope this proposal can be adopted.
