Can range() generate a decreasing sequence?

Yes, the range() function can generate a decreasing sequence by specifying a negative step value. The syntax for range() allows you to set the start, stop, and step parameters, where the step can be negative.

Here’s an example of generating a decreasing sequence:

for i in range(10, 0, -1):
    print(i)

This will output:

10
9
8
7
6
5
4
3
2
1

In this example, range(10, 0, -1) starts at 10 and decrements by 1 until it reaches 1 (the stop value is exclusive).
