Goal:

Your goal is to print out numbers within a given range (Also including given values).

Input Format:

The input will look like: (int-int, int-int, ...)

... meaning the user can add as many int-int as they'd like.

Other Info:

  • You will only have to handle non-negative integer numbers.
  • The first integer in int-int will always be smaller, or the same, then the next integer in int-int
  • The input will always have at least two int-int
  • Each int-int will followed by a comma and a space, except for the last one.
  • This is meaning the shortest answer wins!

Examples / Test Cases:

  • Example 1:
  • Input: (10-13, 11-15, 0-3)
  • Output: 10 11 12 13 11 12 13 14 15 0 1 2 3

  • Example 2:

  • Input: (1-5, 1-15)
  • Output: 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

  • Example 3:

  • Input: (1-2, 1-3, 1-3, 1-2)
  • Output: 1 2 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2

  • Example 4:

  • Input: (4-6, 0-1, 9-9)
  • Output: 4 5 6 0 1 9

    \$\begingroup\$ Will the first integer always be less than the second or can it be reversed and still be valid? e.g. 11-10 would give 11 10 I'd recommend adding a test case for that and for when the integers are the same (e.g. 10-10 -- though I'd imagine this would give 10) \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @Cole Great question(s), yes the first integer will always be smaller and in the case of the numbers being the same it should just print that number (8-8 => 8). \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ Unfortunate that this was closed. It isn't a complete duplicate, as the other one requires comma-separated output. I have a cute answer (valid?) in ngn/apl: Instead of a program/function to do the work, I redefine minus to give the desired output: -←{(⊃~⍨/⍳¨⍺,1+↑⍵),1↓⍵}. Now (10-13, 11-15, 0-3) evaluates to 10 11 12 13 11 12 13 14 15 0 1 2 3! \$\endgroup\$

n      Take number from input (-1 if input is devoid of numbers)
d1+    Duplicate and add 1
?.     If this is 0, stop.
n~     Get number from input and negate it (because of the '-')
L      Pops b,a and pushes a,a+1,a+2,...,b-1,b

TeaScript, 18 + 1 = 19 bytes 20

+1 byte for "Inputs are arrays / lists?" checkbox

Such abuse...

xße`r(${ls`-`}¬)`)

I've never abused JavaScript's casting more in my life.

Try it online

Ungolfed && Explanation

My favorite part is JavaScript arrays when cast to a string have commas auto-inserted. We abuse this so the array elements are inserted as numbers and as separate arguments. So 1-2, would become ['1','2'] but when string casted 1,2 and this can be put directly in a function.

xm(#e`r(${ls`-`}+1)`)

                        // The checkbox makes the input like ['1-2','3-4']
xm(#                )   // Loop through input
    e`             `    // Eval string...
      r(        +1)     // range function...
        ${ls`-`}        // Convert range -> args
                        // See above for more details

Python 3, 76 bytes

l=eval(input().replace(*'-,'))
while l:a,b,*l=l;print(*range(a,b+1),end=' ')

The input is evaluated as a tuple by replacing each - with ,

(10-13, 11-15, 0-3) --> (10,13, 11,15, 0,3)

Then, the first two elements of the list are repeatedly lopped off and the numbers between them are printed.
