Code:
dd (‘’..‘WAT’)[^20]
Result:
("", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "")
I don't know what would be the right behavior, but an infinite list of empty
strings is probably the worst option out of all. When trying to produce a range
by using two strings, I expect either nothing, or one empty string, or some
weird string sequence, or a very large list of different strings. The only
thing that I am not expecting is an infinite list.
