Subject: [ruby-core:93153] [Ruby trunk Feature#15919] Offset parameter for	`Integer#times`

Issue #15919 has been updated by duerst (Martin D�rst).


I agree with all the commenters that using keyword arguments is crucial (and I prefer `start_at:` (or maybe just `start:`) to `offset:`). I also agree that `Integer#step` seems already good enough. Maybe we could add a line about `Integer#step` in the documentation of `Integer#times`.

Feature #15919: Offset parameter for `Integer#times`

----------------------------------------
I request an optional argument on `Integer#times` to set the offset at start, just like `Enumerator#with_index`.

```ruby
5.times(3){|i| p i}
# >> 3
# >> 4
# >> 5
# >> 6
# >> 7
```

I think there are plenty of use cases, especially when the offset is 1.
