Building an integer sequence using the Range operator in LINQ C#

Say you need a list of integers from 1 to 10. The traditional way is the following:

List<int> traditional = new List<int>();
for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++)
{
	traditional.Add(i);
}

There’s a more concise way to achieve this with the static Range method which accepts two parameters. The first integer in the sequence and a count variable which defines the number of elements in the list. The step parameter is 1 by default and cannot be overridden:

IEnumerable<int> intRange = Enumerable.Range(1, 10);
foreach (int i in intRange)
{
	Console.WriteLine(i);
}

This will print the integers from 1 to 10.

Say you need an integer list from 100 to 110 inclusive:

IEnumerable<int> intRange = Enumerable.Range(100, 11);
