Since you say it works I assume you are still not posting
in plain text since it would need indentation after
the for loop.

I don;t know what the dots are. They should give you an error!

Your problem is that return always returns the value and
exits the function. Next time you call the function it
starts again from the beginning.
I think you are looking to create a generator which is
a function that returns a value but next time you call
the function it carries on where it left off.
The good news is that this is easy, just substitute
yield for return. The next problem is to make the function
increment the value each time and for that you need a loop.
def make_numbers(start, end):
while start <= end:
yield start
Notice I've removed the duration parameter because that's
better done outside the function (a function should do
only one thing, in this case generate numbers).
We can access the numbers and introduce a delay with:
for n in make_numbers(float(start),float(end))
print (n)
time.sleep(float(dur))
But of course that's pretty much what the built in
range() function does for you anyway.
for n in range(float(start), float(end)):
print(n)
time.sleep(float(dur))

You will need to include a command to read the
keyboard during your loop. How you do that depends
on your needs and maybe your OS. You can use input()
but the user then needs to hit a key every loop iteration.
Or you can use getch() from curses on Linux or from
msvcrt on Windows if you don't want the user to have
to hit enter each time.
