Python Range

🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)

range() is its own immutable sequence type (not directly printable as a list of numbers) that supports slicing, membership testing, and len() — but must be wrapped in list() to actually see its contents. [S1]

🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)

• range() — returns an immutable sequence of numbers; commonly used for loop counts. [S1]
• 1-argument form — range(stop); start defaults to 0, stop is exclusive. [S1]
• 2-argument form — range(start, stop). [S1]
• 3-argument form — range(start, stop, step); step defaults to 1. [S1]
• Not directly displayable — a range object must be converted via list() to see its numbers. [S1]
• Slicing — r[2] gets a single value; r[:3] returns a new range object (not a list). [S1]
• Membership test — in works on ranges. [S1]
• len() — supported directly on a range. [S1]

📖 세부 내용 (Details)

• One argument: x = range(10) → 0 to 9. [S1]
• Two arguments: x = range(3, 10) → 3 to 9. [S1]
• Three arguments (step): x = range(3, 10, 2). [S1]
• Convert to list: print(list(range(5))). [S1]
• Slicing: r = range(10); print(r[2]); print(r[:3]) — the second print returns a range object. [S1]
• Membership: r = range(0, 10, 2); print(6 in r); print(7 in r). [S1]

⚖️ 모순 및 업데이트 (Contradictions & updates)

소스에서 모순되는 정보는 발견되지 않음.

🛠️ 적용 사례 (Applied in summary)

현재 발견된 실제 적용 사례가 없습니다 — Python For Loops 챕터에서 이미 range()의 반복 용도가 다뤄졌고, 여기서 슬라이싱/멤버십/길이 등 시퀀스 연산으로 확장된다. [S1]

💻 코드 패턴 (Code patterns)

Slicing a range returns another range, not a list (Python):

r = range(10)
print(r[2])   # 2 (single value)
print(r[:3])  # range(0, 3) (a new range object)
