How can I generate a list of consecutive numbers?

Question

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,          


        

Answer 1

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]
