<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 577583 by <a href="/recipes/users/4174115/">Sunjay Varma</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/character/">character</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/float/">float</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/integer/">integer</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/python/">python</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/range/">range</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/special/">special</a>). Revision 3. </p> <p>This module allows the user to create a more verbose set of ranges. Simple character ranges, and float ranges are supported.</p> <p>Supported Ranges:</p> <ul> <li>Basic Integer Ranges</li> <li>Float Ranges (as accurate as a float range can get)</li> <li>Simple character ranges (lowercase to lowercase, uppercase to uppercase, etc.)</li> </ul> <p>It should work in Python 2 and Python 3.</p> <p><strong>If you tested this for speed, or want to test this for speed, please post the results! (And your system specs)</strong></p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> Found a really silly error of mine when using range instead of xrange in these functions!</p>
