Why is a range in relax created as xrange objects which is not sliceable? -- December 10, 2013 - 12:48

Hi Edward.

I wonder why range objects in relax by default are created as

xrange objects?

I think this is related to the error when importing matplotlib.

from pylab import *

-------

relax> M31=range(10)

relax> type(M31)

<type 'xrange'>

relax> print M31[:7]

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>

TypeError: sequence index must be integer, not 'slice'
