Giving the JavaScript number a range method

number-range.js

// Give the humble javascript number the ability to generate an (ascending) range, like in ruby

Object.defineProperty(Number.prototype, '..', {
  value: function *getDots(n) {
    let i = this
    while(i <= n) {
      yield i++
    }
  }
})

const range = 1['..'](10)

// range.next() => { value: 1, done: false }

// The best part is you can then do this:

const infiniteRange = 1['..'](Infinity)

/* infiniteRange.next() => { value: 1, done: false }
   infiniteRange.next() => { value: 2, done: false }
   infiniteRange.next() => { value: 3, done: false }
   ...
   towards infinity!
