[python] How can I generate a list of consecutive numbers?

Say if you had a number input 8 in python and you wanted to generate a list of consecutive numbers up to 8 like

[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

How could you do this?

You can use list comprehensions for this problem as it will solve it in only two lines. Code-

n = int(input("Enter the range of the list:\n"))
l1 = [i for i in range(n)] #Creates list of numbers in the range 0 to n
if __name__ == "__main__":
    print(l1)

Thank you.

Depending on how you want the result, you can also print each number in a for loop:

def numbers():
    for i in range(int(input('How far do you wanna go? '))+1):
        print(i)

So if the user input was 7 for example:

How far do you wanna go? 7
0
1
2
3
4
5
6
7

You can also delete the '+1' in the for loop and place it on the print statement, which will change it to starting at 1 instead of 0.

Using Python's built in range function:

Python 2

input = 8
output = range(input + 1)

print output
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

Python 3

input = 8
output = list(range(input + 1))

print(output)
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

import numpy as np

myList = np.linspace(0, 100, 1000) #Generates 1000 numbers from 0 to 100 in equal intervals

Just to give you another example, although range(value) is by far the best way to do this, this might help you later on something else.

list = []
calc = 0

while int(calc) < 9:
    list.append(calc)
    calc = int(calc) + 1

print list
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

You can use itertools.count() to generate unbounded sequences. (itertools is in the Python standard library). Docs here:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools.count

Note :- Certainly in python-3x you need to use Range function It works to generate numbers on demand, standard method to use Range function to make a list of consecutive numbers is

x=list(range(10))
#"list"_will_make_all_numbers_generated_by_range_in_a_list
#number_in_range_(10)_is_an_option_you_can_change_as_you_want
print (x)
#Output_is_ [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]

Also if you want to make an function to generate a list of consecutive numbers by using Range function watch this code !

def  consecutive_numbers(n) :
    list=[i for i in range(n)]
    return (list)
print(consecutive_numbers(10))

Good Luck!
