initializeArrayWithRange

JS TODO

Initializes an array containing the numbers in the specified range where start and end are inclusive with their common difference step.

Use Array.from() to create an array of the desired length, (end - start + 1)/step, and a map function to fill it with the desired values in the given range. You can omit start to use a default value of 0. You can omit step to use a default value of 1.

const initializeArrayWithRange = (end, start = 0, step = 1) =>
  Array.from(
    { length: Math.ceil((end - start + 1) / step) },
    (v, i) => i * step + start
  );
initializeArrayWithRange(5); // [0,1,2,3,4,5]
initializeArrayWithRange(7, 3); // [3,4,5,6,7]
initializeArrayWithRange(9, 0, 2); // [0,2,4,6,8]
