[Tutor] odd

[Ian Witham]

from Guido's tutorial:

The given end point is never part of the generated list; range(10) generates
a list of 10 values, the legal indices for items of a sequence of length 10.
It is possible to let the range start at another number, or to specify a
different increment (even negative; sometimes this is called the `step')
