lrange(n) Tcl Built-In Commands lrange(n) NAME lrange - Return one or more adjacent elements from a list SYNOPSIS lrange list first last DESCRIPTION List must be a valid Tcl list. This command will return a new list consisting of elements first through last, inclusive. First or last may be end (or any abbreviation of it) to refer to the last element of the list. If first is less(1,3) than zero, it is treated as if(3,n) it were zero. If last is greater than or equal to the number of elements in(1,8) the list, then it is treated as if(3,n) it were end. If first is greater than last then an empty string(3,n) is returned. Note: ``lrange list first first'' does not always produce the same result as ``lindex list first'' (although it often does for simple fields that aren't enclosed in(1,8) braces); it does, however, produce exactly the same results as ``list [lindex list first]'' SEE ALSO list(n), lappend(n), lindex(n), linsert(n), llength(n), lsearch(3,n)(n), lset(n), lreplace(n), lsort(n) KEYWORDS element, list, range, sublist Tcl 7.4 lrange(n)
