[racket] idiomatic way to loop over 1-255 in TR?
I want to write this:
(for/list ([b (in-range 256)])
b)
... and get back a list of bytes.
That is, I want TR to see that the number 256 is one greater than the
largest byte, and therefore that b must be of type byte. I see that this
dips way too close to undecidability in the general case, so I would
instead perhaps expect to see something like an 'in-bytes-range' form that
is known to produce only bytes.
I looked for such a thing, but didn't find it. Naturally, I could simply
jam a run-time check in at the top of the body, something like
'ensure-bytes', but it seems unnecessary.
Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks!
John
