It's just happened that I could use this generalization of something already in Commons Math.
The name "natural" for
the existing method is "natural" (pun intended) since it returns an
array representing the argument - e.g., natural(5) is {0, .., 4}
which *is* 5 in set-theoretic terms.
How about "sequence"? Perhaps we could even already further generalize to sequence(int size, int start, int stride) OK? GillesP.S. The "natural" method would still be defined as "sequence(n, 0, 1)".
