# iterate.tie_chains

`abjad.tools.iterate.` `tie_chains`(expr)

  Yield left-to-right tie chains in expr.

      abjad> notes construct.notes([0], [(5, 16), (1, 8), (1, 8), (5, 16)])
      abjad> staff = Staff(notes)
      abjad> tuplet = FixedDurationTuplet((2, 16), staff[1:3])
      abjad> pitchtools.diatonicize(staff)
      abjad> print staff.format
      \new Staff {
              c'4 ~
              \times 2/3 {
                      c'16
                      d'8
              }
              e'8
              f'4 ~
              f'16
      }

      abjad> for x in iterate.tie_chains(t):
      ...     x
      ...
      (Note(c', 4), Note(c', 16))
      (Note(d', 8),)
      (Note(e', 8),)
      (Note(f', 4), Note(f', 16))

  Note that one-note tie chains yield the same as other tie chains.

  Note also that nested structures are no problem.
