Is there a way in Typescript I can initialize an array with values from n to m without naming all elements?
What I use today:
let lst : number [] = [5,6,7,8];
What I am looking for:
let lst : number [] = [5 .. 8];

No, you should create an utility function for it. – captain-yossarian from Ukraine Dec 03 '21 at 14:14

1As far as I see, the question has not been answered by the posted threat. The answer-threat is about creating an array from 1 ... N, the question was from n ... m. – fonzane Dec 03 '21 at 14:23

But also there is still an answer in the threat: Array.from({length: 10}, (_ , i) => i + 1) 10 and 1 are your variables here, 10 being the length you want and 1 the value of the first element. So for your example: let lst: number[] = Array.from({length: 4}, (_ , i) => i + 5) – fonzane Dec 03 '21 at 14:27
