lrange(n) Tcl Built-In Commands lrange(n)
NAME
lrange - Return one or more adjacent elements from a list
SYNOPSIS
llrraannggee 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 eenndd (or any abbreviation of it) to refer to the last element of
the list. If first is less than zero, it is treated as if it were
zero. If last is greater than or equal to the number of elements in
the list, then it is treated as if it were eenndd. If first is greater
than last then an empty string is returned. Note: ``llrraannggee list first
first'' does not always produce the same result as ``lliinnddeexx list
first'' (although it often does for simple fields that aren't enclosed
in braces); it does, however, produce exactly the same results as
``lliisstt [[lliinnddeexx list first]]''
