def batch(reader, batch_size, drop_last=False):
    """
    This operator creates a batched reader which combines the data from the 
    input reader to batched data.
    
    Args:
        reader(generator): the data reader to read from.
        batch_size(int): size of each mini-batch.
        drop_last(bool, optional): If set to True, the last batch is dropped when 
            the size of last batch is not equal to batch_size, if set to False,
            it will not. Default: False.
    Returns:
        The batched reader. 
    
    Return Type:
        generator
