Feature Request - Decimal.range

[Adam Lancaster]

Hello, thanks for the great library.

Would you be open to a PR to add a Decimal.range function, allowing a start and end Decimal, and a third decimal specifying the step amount?

Decimal.range(Decimal.new("1"), Decimal.new("2"), Decimal.new("0.1"))

[Eric Meadows-Jönsson]

Thanks for the suggestion. Since you can do this with the Stream functions and they give you more flexibility we don't feel this function should be added to the library.

Decimal.new("1")
|> Stream.iterate(&Decimal.add(&1, "0.1"))
|> Stream.take_while(&(Decimal.compare(&1, "2") != :gt))

Stream.unfold(Decimal.new("1"), fn n ->
  if Decimal.compare(n, "2") != :gt do
    {n, Decimal.add(n, "0.1")}
  end
end)
