python requests module iteration

I was doing a coding challenge and noticed something weird with how arrays worked with modules (or more likely it's my own error). 

pages = [*list of 5 webpages*]
final = []

for i in range(0,4):
    page = requests.get(pages[i])
    piece = page.text
    final.append(piece)

print(''.join(final))

This code only joins 4 of the 5 webpages. Changing the range to 0,5 or len(pages) solves the problem. I was under the impression that 0,4 would include all the webpages in my list (5 of them) since indexing starts at 0.

The following code is pythonic and more robust in a sense that it does not depend on the number of pages:

pages = [*list of 5 webpages*]
final = [requests.get(page).text for page in pages]
print(''.join(final))
