How to populate a Scala List with sample data (examples)

As a quick note, I was just reminded that you can populate a Scala List using a Range, like this:

scala> (1 to 5).toList
res0: List[Int] = List(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

scala> (1 to 10 by 2).toList
res1: List[Int] = List(1, 3, 5, 7, 9)

scala> (5 to 11).toList
res2: List[Int] = List(5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)

scala> ('d' to 'h').toList
res3: List[Char] = List(d, e, f, g, h)

Those are just a few examples. For many more ways to populate Scala lists with sample data, see How to populate Scala collections with a Range, How to generate random numbers, characters, and sequences in Scala, and Different ways to create and populate Lists in Scala.
