The equivalent of Ranges is already in Rust’s standard library, and has been forever. We call it Iterator. It also provides extra static guarantees against invalidation.

I see that you did not understand my question.

I see, too, that there are plans for some support for generics in the near future. So the answer might become yes, in time.

Rust has also had generics for a very long time.
