def frange(*args):
"""frange([start, ] end [, step [, mode]]) -> generator
A float range generator. If not specified, the default start is 0.0
and the default step is 1.0.
Optional argument mode sets whether frange outputs an open or closed
interval. mode must be an int. Bit zero of mode controls whether start is
included (on) or excluded (off); bit one does the same for end. Hence:
0 -> open interval (start and end both excluded)
1 -> half-open (start included, end excluded)
2 -> half open (start excluded, end included)
3 -> closed (start and end both included)
By default, mode=1 and only start is included in the output.
