In addition to the drug's solution, this reminds me of the chunks 
of std.range.

import std.range;
import std.stdio;

void main(){
     auto source = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10];
     auto chunks = chunks(source, 2);

     writeln(chunks[0]); // [1, 2]

     foreach(c; chunks)
     	writeln(c[1]);
}

output:
2
4
6
8
10
