What's new in C# 8.0 - C# Guide | Microsoft Docs[^]:

The start of the range is inclusive, but the end of the range is exclusive, meaning the start is included in the range but the end isn't included in the range.

foreach(var item in Enumerable.Range(1, 10))
{
  Console.WriteLine(item);
}

Since a range is a set, and you're asking to iterate the set, then it's working exactly as I would have expected.

TheGreatAndPowerfulOz wrote:

But the set from 0 to 0 is not empty, there is one item in it: 0.

for (i in 0..allItems.count){
    allItems.getItem(i);
}

for (i in 0..allItems.count - 1){
    allItems.getItem(i);
}

thinking about iterating over a set of item

for value in 1 to 3
    print value

fn main() {

    for i in 0..0 {
        print!("0..0: {}\n", i);

0..=0: 0

foreach (var index in Enumerable.Range( 0, 0 ))
{ 
   Console.WriteLine(index);

// produces no output

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
