how range functions works in creating ndarray?

How is this range function working here? It is generating an answer but I can't understand it it has created the resulted ndarray.

np.array([range(i, i + 3) for i in [2, 4, 6]])

A range is a sequence of numbers. The function range normally accepts 1-3 params range(start, stop[, step]). In your case the step is ommited, thus the default 1 is applied. So it is creating ranges from a given number i to that number +3 → range(i, i + 3)

The list comprehension, makes that the given number i will iterate over the list [2,4,6], so you will create a list with 3 sublists: [range(2,2+3), range(4,4+3), range(6,6+3)] wich equals to [[2,3,4], [4,5,6], [6,7,8]].

Finally, all is wrapped as a numpy array and the output is → array([[2, 3, 4],[4, 5, 6],[6, 7, 8]])
