Imagine you’re walking down a staircase, but instead of taking every single step, you decide to take one step, skip two, and repeat. You control the distance between steps. In Swift, stride is your tool for creating controlled, custom steps over a range of values. Whether you’re iterating through numbers, creating animations, or building charts, stride gives you flexibility and precision.
What Is stride?
The stride(from:to:by:) and stride(from:through:by:) functions in Swift generate a sequence of numbers. We decide the parameters:
from: The starting value of the sequence.
to: The upper bound the sequence stops before reaching (exclusive).
through: The upper bound the sequence includes (inclusive).
by: The step value, indicating how much to increment or decrement between values.
Looks like your first example is wrong. How is there a 2 in the sequence if you start at 1 and increment by 2?? I realize that it's been a while since I learned about this, but It doesn't make sense to me.
