gosh> (lrange 1 5)

       (1 2 3 4)



lrange start :optional end step

         Creates a lazy sequence of numbers starting from start,
         increasing by step (default 1), to the maximum value that
         doesn’t exceed end.

5 doesn't exceed 5, so (according to this spec.)  5 should be printed.

The correct English should be...

           to the maximum value that is less than [end].

           up to (and not including) the maximum value [end].
