If you're familiar with C++, that's easy.   Ranges are a generalization for a pair of iterators. If that doesn't make sense, think of an iterator as a read cursor in a stream/array/data structure. To safely scan with the cursor requires a starting point and an end point. Andrei has a video titled "iterators must go"
