Creates a generator, that generates all values in the given range using the given step.
- Use a `while` loop to iterate from `start` to `end`, using `yield` to return each value and then incrementing by `step`.
- Omit the third argument, `step`, to use a default value of `1`.
```js
const rangeGenerator = function* (start, end, step = 1) {
let i = start;
while (i < end) {
yield i;
i += step;
}
};
```
```js
for (let i of rangeGenerator(6, 10)) console.log(i);
// Logs 6, 7, 8, 9
```
