Description

Sometimes we deal with Uint32Array or alike.

Would that be nice to support both dtype argument and existing array as argument:

let arr = range(10, 'uint32')
range(11, 15, arr.subarray(0, 4))

?

Research direction

The issue provides a JavaScript usage example but names no implementation file or test. Start by locating the range API and its existing tests, then determine how a typed or existing array should be accepted alongside the dtype argument. Done means the shown Uint32Array/subarray usage works without breaking the current range forms.
