I prefer this (Scala):
list = list ++ (0 to 10)
That's quite less readable. Scala sometimes has some unreadable
syntax. Python has taught me how much useful a readable syntax is :-)
Designing languages requires to find a balance between several
different and opposed needs.

how about this hypothetical syntax:
list ~= [0..10];
I'm not sure what the type of "list" is supposed to be, but this
works today for arrays:
list ~= array(iota(0, 10));

What does iota mean?
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/phobos/std_range.html#iota
This link jumps straight to:
Take!(Sequence!("a.field[0] + n *
a.field[1]",Tuple!(CommonType!(B,E),S))) iota(B, E, S)(B begin, E end, S
step);
Wow, please tell me this is a ddoc malfunction. I mean, that thing left
to iota is supposed to be a type?
Irony minded. I'm destroyed.
