Returns a new range based on the given objects begin and end. Optional argument exclude_end determines whether object end is included as the last object in the range:
Example
Range.new(2, 5).to_a # => [2, 3, 4, 5] Range.new(2, 5, true).to_a # => [2, 3, 4] Range.new('a', 'd').to_a # => ["a", "b", "c", "d"] Range.new('a', 'd', true).to_a # => ["a", "b", "c"]
