“The range function at can be used to create a list of numbers ranging from a starting number up to the number just before the ending number. That may sound a little confusing. Let’s combine the range function with the list function to see exactly how this works. The range function doesn’t actually create a list of numbers; it returns an iterator, which is a type of Python object specially designed to work with loops. However, if we combine range with list, we get a list of numbers.”
