Things change.  You have a Python2-oriented tutorial.  Neither version
is wrong.  In Python2, range returns a list.  In Python3, range returns
a range object, which you can iterate over.  So for a typical use, which
is to iterate over the range, the results are identical:

>>> for i in range(5,10):
...     print(i)
...
5
6
7
8
9
