AngularJS For Loop with Numbers & Ranges

Angular does provide some support for a for loop using numbers within its HTML directives:

<div data-ng-repeat="i in [1,2,3,4,5]">
  do something
</div>

But if your scope variable includes a range that has a dynamic number then you will need to create an empty array each time.

In the controller

var range = [];
for(var i=0;i<total;i++) {
  range.push(i);
}
$scope.range = range;

In the HTML

<div data-ng-repeat="i in range">
  do something
</div>

This works, but it is unnecessary since we won’t be using the range array at all within the loop. Does anyone know of setting a range or a regular for min/max value?

Something like:

<div data-ng-repeat="i in 1 .. 100">
  do something
</div>
