Range is another great class. Ranges represent intervals of numbers. On the next page is just a quick glance at some of the methods ranges have.

Do you really need ranges? No, not really. It’s the same with hashes and times, I suppose. You can program fairly well without them (and most languages don’t have anything like them, anyway). But it’s all about style, about intention, and about capturing snapshots of your brain right there in your code.

And this is all just the tip of the iceberg. Each of these classes has way more methods than I have shown you, and this isn’t even a tenth of the classes that come with Ruby. But you don’t really need most of them…they are just time-savers. You can pick them up gradually as you go. That’s how most of us do it.
