how to use the range function from the underscore library in javascript

The range function from the Underscore library allows you to create an array of numbers from a starting point up to, but not including, an ending point. The function takes up to three arguments: start, stop, and step.

Here's an example of how to use the range function in JavaScript:

index.tsx
// Import the Underscore library
const _ = require('underscore');

// Create a range of numbers from 1 to 10
const range1 = _.range(1, 11);

console.log(range1); // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]

// Create a range of numbers with a step of 2
const range2 = _.range(0, 11, 2);

console.log(range2); // [0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

// Create a range of numbers with a negative step
const range3 = _.range(5, 0, -1);

console.log(range3); // [5, 4, 3, 2, 1]

In this example, we import the Underscore library and then use the _.range function to create three different arrays of numbers: one from 1 to 10, one from 0 to 10 with a step of 2, and one from 5 to 0 with a step of -1.

Note that the stop argument is not included in the resulting array, so the arrays in the example above do not include the number 11, 10, or 0, respectively.
