integerSequence() Operation

Generates an integer number sequence from a defined begin, end, and step between the numbers.

	Simple ascending number sequence from a start number CODE `set anArray = integerSequence(5, 3);` Result: JSON `{"anArray": [3, 4, 5]}`
Syntax	`integerSequence(aLimit)` `integerSequence(aLimit, aStart)` `integerSequence(aLimit, aStart, aStep)`
Semantics	Generates an integer number sequence from a defined end, begin, and step between the numbers. Returns an array. If no start value is given, the number sequence starts from 0. The number sequence always ends with a value that is lower or equal to the defined end value for ascending sequences resp. higher or equal for descending sequences. You can create descending number sequences by giving a negative step value.
Substitutables	`aLimit`, `aStart`, `aStep`	Can be any variable or literal having the type Integer.
Error Codes	Find the related error codes on System Errors of domain FUMSM.
	`FUMSM/35`	Step value cannot be zero in integer sequence
	`FUMSM/36`	The integer sequence is not convergent
Examples	Simple ascending number sequence CODE `set anArray = integerSequence(5);` Result: JSON `{"anArray": [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]}`
	Ascending number sequence with steps CODE `set anArray = integerSequence(20, 2, 3);` Result: JSON `{"anArray": [2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20]}`
	Descending number sequence CODE `set anArray = integerSequence(2, 20, -2);` Result: JSON `{"anArray": [20, 18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2]}`
	Step is greater than limit CODE `set anArray = integerSequence(8, 1, 10);` Result: JSON `{"anArray": [1]}`
