The three gap theorem asserts that for any real \\α\ and any positive integer \N\ the fractional parts of the sequence \0, \α, 2\α, \⋯, (N-1)\α\ have at most three distinct gap lengths. In this note, we extend the three gap theorem to arbitrary orbits of interval exchange transformations, and in the process, we generalize the three gap theorem and a result by Boshernitzan.
