Suggestion: add "irange", "icount" which would return ints instead of nums

[noamraph]

Hi,

I just used range to find the first index which satisfies some condition relating to the next member of the list.
I had to use .toInt() twice, to convert the num instances to ints.

How about adding an "irange" and "icount" functions, which would do the same thing but with ints?

If I send a pull request with that, will it be considered?

Thanks,
Noam

Since only the types would differ, I think the right approach would probably to make range generic. That would allow for either approach. That would rely on implicit type deduction for backward compatibility, so we'd want to test on the internal codebase, but that seems reasonable to me.

@cbracken Are there any plan to provide this in the public version?
