Alphabet range in Python

Question

Instead of making a list of alphabet characters like this   alpha     a    b    c    d           z     is there any way that we can group it to a range or something  For example  for numbers it can be grouped using range     range 1  10

Here is a simple letter-range implementation:

Code

def letter_range(start, stop="{", step=1):
    """Yield a range of lowercase letters.""" 
    for ord_ in range(ord(start.lower()), ord(stop.lower()), step):
        yield chr(ord_)

Demo

list(letter_range("a", "f"))
# ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']

list(letter_range("a", "f", step=2))
# ['a', 'c', 'e']

This is the easiest way I can figure out     usr bin python3 for i in range 97  123       print  quot   c  quot  format i   end      So  97 to 122 are the ASCII number equivalent to  a  to and  z   Notice the lowercase and the need to put 123  since it will not be included   In print function make sure to set the   c   character  format  and  in this case  we want it to print it all together not even letting a new line at the end  so end   would do the job  The result is this  abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
