BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL

Range

generates the list

generates the list

uses step di.

Range starts from , and successively adds increments of di until the result is greater than .

Range uses the standard Mathematica iteration specification, as applied to a single variable.

Out[1]=

Out[1]=

Out[1]=

Use a step of 2:

Use a negative step:

Use an exact numeric-valued step:

Use a machine-number step:

Use a precision-24 step:

Range of very large numbers:

Use a symbolic step:

Produce a geometric sequence:

Form a polynomial from coefficients:

Form a random permutation:

Find an inverse permutation:

is equivalent to Table

Use Range or Span (;;) as Part specification:

For some step sizes, Range may not include the upper limit given:

Even though the lower limit was exact, the inexact step makes the first element inexact:
