You can tell range where to start: range(2, 5) gives , , . The first number is where to start, the second is where to stop (exclusive). range(1, 6) gives , , , , . If you want numbers through , you stop at .
This off-by-one thing trips up beginners, but you'll get used to it. range(0, 5) is the same as range(5). When you omit the start, Python assumes . Most sequences in programming start at , so this default makes sense.
