How to split a list in n sized chunks, where n is an iterable list of integers?

Question

I have a list of words and a list of integers 'n'. How do I split the list of words in 'n' sized chunks (uneven)?

e.g.

words = ['apple', 'orange', 'oof', 'banana', 'apple', 'cherries', 'tomato']
n = ['2', '1', '4']

output:

[['apple', 'orange'], ['oof'], ['banana', 'apple', 'cherries', 'tomato']]

Another answer:

output = []
count = 0
for i in range(len(n)):
    chunk_size = int(n[i])
    chunk = []
    for j in range(chunk_size):
        index = (i * j) + j
        chunk.append(words[count])
        count = count + 1
    output.append(chunk)

print(output)
