That is amusing. I've been writing a bunch of range/algorithm code myself
lately, and I find it's a struggle because it is simply not how I think about
code. I think in terms of C style loops, and solutions just pop out of my
fingers on the keyboard. With ranges, I have to forcibly think in a different
way, it's a lot like transitioning from walking to using a snowboard.
