Why I am getting different results when I run this code in my Python console?

Question

I am working on a simple range code example:

range(5, 10)

Output should be: [5, 6, 7, 8, 9] , according to the website I'm working on and seen videos on. When I run this code in my Python console I get these result:

>>> range (5,10)
0
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Here's how to get the output you want, in Python 2 and Python 3:

Python 2

>>> range(5,10)
[5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

Python 3

>>> list(range(5,10))
[5, 6, 7, 8, 9]

The tutorial you're following is probably for Python 2 but your question is tagged Python 3, are you sure this is the right tutorial for you?
