SRFI-42:
Runs through a range of real numbers using an explicit index variable. This
form of range enumeration avoids accumulation of rounding errors and is the
one to use if any of the numbers defining the range is inexact, not an
integer, or a bignum of large magnitude.
Providing default value 0 for start and 1 for step, the generator first
evaluates start, stop, and step, which must result in reals a, b, an
d
s such that n = (b-a)/s is also representable as a real. Then the sequence
0, 1, 2, ... is enumerated while the current value i is less than n, and
the variable in vars is bound to the value a + i s. If any of the values
a, b, or s is non-exact then all values in the sequence are non-exact.
