-XRange objects behave like tuples, and offer a single method:
-
-\begin{methoddesc}[xrange]{tolist}{}
-  Return a list object which represents the same values as the xrange
-  object.
-\end{methoddesc}
+XRange objects have very little behavior: they only support indexing
+and the \function{len()} function.
