Does javascript have a range function?

Question

Hi all i was just wondering if JS has a range function which will return numbers defined in an offset. I'm not using jQuery, so pure JS would be the best solution for me.

I want to get a set of numbers in sets of 5 i.e.

1. First set of numbers - 0 - 4
2. Second set of numbers - 5 - 10
3. Third set of numbers - 11 - 16
4. And so on and so on

I was wondering if this is possible at all? I was also looking at the underscore library to see if there's any handy methods but i couldn't find anything related to this at all.

If you're using ES6/2015 then you can also do this in pure JS (although, a little messy :P)

Array(5).fill().map((x,i)=>i);
