I found an error with this code.

<pre><code>
range('1', '10');
</code></pre>

This makes Google Chrome lock up.

Lines 21 and 22 should be:

<pre><code>
inival = parseInt(low, 10);
endval = parseInt(high, 10);
</code></pre>

@George. You can also compile only the functions you need for php.js. Personally speaking, doing &quot;range('a', 'i');&quot; seems easier and clearer than writing multi-stepped non-semantic code, even if that code is in a nice functional style. (It would be nice, I'll admit if our compiler could allow chaining in array functions, possibly stripping of the redundant &quot;array_&quot; prefix as in the PHP API, but in this case the php.js way seems easier.)

I apologize.  The code that you can use from jPaq is this:
<pre><code>
Array.range(97,106).map(function(num) {
  return String.fromCharCode(num);
})
</code></pre>

I just downloaded a build of jPaq that only contains the array functions.  I definitely like how easy dealing with arrays can be.  I used the following code to produce the lower-case letters a through i.
<pre><code>
Array.range(97,106).forEach(function(num) {
  return String.fromCharCode(num);
})
</code></pre>

I can also easily emulate the other examples as well with jPaq.  FYI, if you are looking for a neat javascript library that you custom build, make it at http://www.jpaq.org/

@ cfddream: Thanks for sharing. Does your function also support alphanumeric ranges like in the 3rd example though?

This is my 'range' function:
function range(start, end, step){
    var l = arguments.length;
    if(l == 0) return [];
    if(l == 1) return arguments.callee(0, start, 1);
    if(l == 2) return arguments.callee(start, end, 1);
    var temp = []
    start = start&gt;&gt;0, end = end&gt;&gt;0, step = step&gt;&gt;0;
    //console.log(start, end, step);
    for(;start &lt; end; start+= step){
        temp.push(start);
    }
    return temp;
}
range(); // []
range(10); // [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
range(-10); // []
range(-10, -20); //[]
range(0, 10); //[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
range(-10, 10, 2); // [-10, -8, -6, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8]
